Deep Dive: The Propagation Room

Cannabis propagation is a crucial stage in the cultivation of cannabis. It is the first stage in the creation of new cannabis plants through methods such as cloning and seed germination. In this blog post, we will focus on OGEN’s approach to propagation.

Discover How OGEN Combines Traditional Methods with Innovative Technology for Successful Cannabis Propagation

Propagation is the process of creating new cannabis plants from existing ones. Cannabis cultivation is necessary. It enables growers to maintain a consistent strain and preserve the genetic characteristics of their plants. The two primary methods of propagation are cloning and seed germination.

Cloning

Clones are identical copies of the parent plant and offer several advantages over seeds. They allow growers to maintain genetic consistency and ensure their plants have specific characteristics such as potency, flavour, and aroma. OGEN cuts clones from healthy mother plants to provide a strong foundation of growth.

We use a deep water culture method to ensure proper growth and development.

Seed Germination

To germinate cannabis seeds using rockwool cubes, they are soaked in water until fully saturated. A tiny hole is then used to cradle the cannabis seed.

The cubes are kept moist and warm to encourage seed germination. Once the seeds have sprouted and developed roots, they can be transplanted into more giant cubes for further growth and development.

Rockwool cubes are a popular choice for seed germination. They provide good drainage and aeration, which are essential factors. This helps prevent excess watering and root rot.

Deep Water Culture

OGEN uses a technique called Deep Water Culture for propagating cannabis. This technique involves growing clones in a nutrient-rich solution. This solution provides them with essential nutrients for healthy root growth. It also helps them develop into strong and healthy plants.

OGEN's approach to propagation is unique in combining traditional cultivation methods with cutting-edge technology.

How Combining Traditional with New Methods of Cannabis Propagation Benefits The Consumer

Cannabis cultivation has come a long way since the early days of outdoor grow and guerrilla farming. Today, cannabis cultivation has evolved into a highly specialized and technologically advanced industry. By combining traditional methods with innovative technology, growers can achieve successful cannabis propagation that benefits consumers in several ways:

‍

Achieving Consistent Growing Conditions: By combining traditional cultivation methods with innovative technology, growers can ensure consistent growing conditions for their cannabis plants. This results in healthier plants, higher yields, and a better product for consumers.
Customized Strains: Technology has enabled growers to create new and innovative strains of cannabis through genetic manipulation and selective breeding. This allows for a wider variety of themes that cater to the diverse preferences of consumers.
Sustainability: The use of technology has made the cultivation of cannabis more sustainable and eco-friendly. By using LED lights, efficient irrigation systems, and other environmentally conscious technologies, growers can reduce their carbon footprint and minimize waste, which benefits consumers by providing an ethically produced product.
Higher-Quality Product: With precise growing conditions, customized strains, and sustainable practices, consumers can expect to find a high-quality product that meets their needs.
Improved Safety: Innovative technology can also help ensure the safety of cannabis products. For example, testing equipment can detect contaminants, pesticides, and other harmful substances, ensuring consumers get a safe and clean product.
Greater Access: Combining traditional methods with technology has also made cannabis cultivation more accessible. With automated systems and other technological advancements, growers can cultivate cannabis more efficiently and cost-effectively, which may lead to greater availability and affordability for consumers.

‍

Combining traditional methods with innovative technology has numerous consumer benefits, including consistent growing conditions, customized strains, sustainability, higher-quality products, improved safety, and greater accessibility. As the cannabis industry continues to evolve, consumers can expect even more benefits from this combination of old and new cultivation methods.

‍The Science Behind OGEN's Cannabis Propagation Techniques

At OGEN, quality control is essential for successful cannabis propagation. Our dedicated team of experts monitors the progress of each clone to ensure that it is healthy and thriving.

We measure the success of our propagation efforts using advanced metrics such as growth rates and root development. OGEN places a high emphasis on quality control in its propagation process. We have a dedicated team that monitors the progress of the clones and ensures that they are healthy and thriving.

As a leader in the cannabis industry, OGEN is dedicated to using innovative techniques to produce the highest quality cannabis. One of the key techniques used by OGEN is cannabis propagation. Propagation is the process of creating new cannabis plants from existing ones. OGEN uses cloning and Deep Water Culture (DWC) to propagate its cannabis plants.

DWC is a hydroponic method of growing cannabis plants. It involves placing the plant's roots directly in oxygenated water, providing nutrients and oxygen to the roots. DWC allows for faster growth and higher yields than traditional soil-based methods.

Timeframe for Propagation

The timeframe for propagating cannabis at OGEN varies depending on factors such as the strain being bred and environmental conditions. Generally, it takes about 2-3 weeks for the clones to develop roots and be ready for transplanting into rockwool cubes.

Cutting Clones

Cloning involves cutting from a healthy cannabis plant and planting it in a rooting medium to promote root growth.

At OGEN, we use a strict procedure for cloning. This includes cutting 6-8 inch clones with sterilized cutting tools and applying a rooting hormone. The hormone encourages root growth and ensures the clones have a strong foundation for growth.

Propagation Environment

The ideal environmental conditions for propagating clones include high humidity, warm temperatures, and proper lighting. OGEN maintains these conditions using specialized grow rooms with precise temperature and humidity controls.

OGEN utilizes a combination of traditional and modern techniques for cannabis propagation. Quality control is strictly monitored, and environmental conditions are meticulously observed. This ensures our clones grow into strong, healthy plants that produce the highest quality cannabis.

Cloning and Deep Water Culture

Cannabis propagation is a critical process that requires skill, expertise, and attention to detail. OGEN uses a combination of traditional cultivation and modern technology. This approach produces healthy clones.

These clones, in turn, develop into strong, healthy plants.

OGEN follows a rigorous process and uses quality control measures to ensure success in propagation. This ensures their plants are of the highest quality.
