After months of managing plant health, driving yields and potency, and perfecting the finish, harvest is always a highly anticipated event. Harvest also is a critical time when small mistakes can generate big problems, and major miscalculations can swiftly spoil entire crops. This point in the production cycle tends to have higher-than-normal labor requirements, so growers should plan accordingly to ensure the harvest process is efficient and error-free.
Outdoor cultivation is a marathon marked by erratic weather, pest outbreaks and disease hurdles, but the long season also allows ample time to develop the harvest process and organize the necessary workforce.
