In this article, you'll find this list of topics that you can click on to quickly access the information you need: - [Life Phases](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#LifePhases) - [Change Phases for Individual Plant Batches](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#ChangePhasesIndividualPlantBatches) - [Change Phases for Multiple Plant Batches](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#ChangePhasesMultiplePlantBatches) - [Reactivate or Edit a Phase](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#ReactivatePhase) - [Finish a Plant Batch](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#FinishPlantBatch) --- ### Life Phases #### Phase 1: Immature Phase - **Duration:** Typically around 10 days. - **Description:** This phase marks the germination of the plant (if from seed) or the rooting (if from cloning). Tasks such as planting, the addition of additives like fertilizer and pest control must be meticulously recorded. #### Phase 2: Vegetative Phase - **Duration:** Typically around 14 days. - **Description:** During this phase, the plant experiences vigorous growth mostly due to the daylight length. Activities such as applying additives, taking cuttings, making observations, and managing waste are documented. #### Phase 3: Flowering Phase - **Duration:** Lasting 55 to 110 days. - **Description:** This critical phase signifies the onset of flower development. Similar to the vegetative phase, activities such as applying additives, implementing recipes, making observations, managing displacements, and handling waste are recorded. #### Phase 4: Harvest Phase - **Duration:** Typically around 1-7 days. - **Description:** The culmination of the cultivation cycle, where the plant reaches maturity and is ready for harvest. Activities such as harvesting, applying additives, implementing recipes, making observations, managing displacements, and handling waste are documented. 🔝[**Return to topic list**](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#topiclist) --- ### Change Phases for Individual Plant Batches **Moving to the Next Phase:** - - When ready to progress to the next phase, click on the **Start Phase** button - The next phase will turn green, indicating that it's active and its parameters can be edited ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-29-2024-01-07-30-8485-PM.png?width=670&height=176&name=image-png-May-29-2024-01-07-30-8485-PM.png) 🔝[**Return to topic list**](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#topiclist) --- ### Change Phases for Multiple Plant Batches 1. **Navigate to Project:** - Go to **Cultivation \> Projects** and click on the desired project 2. **Select Batches:** - Click on the rows of the plant batches you want to change into the next phase; they will be highlighted with a blue background 3. **Move to Next Phase:** - Click on the **Next Phase** button - **This action is only possible if all plant batches are currently in the same phase** 4. **Confirm Action:** - The system will prompt you to confirm the action - Click on **Yes** to confirm or **No** to cancel the action ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-29-2024-01-05-57-6356-PM.png?width=670&height=207&name=image-png-May-29-2024-01-05-57-6356-PM.png) 🔝[**Return to topic list**](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#topiclist) --- ### Reactivate or Edit a Phase #### Reactivate It is possible to edit the previous phases at any time by clicking on the **Restart** button in the desired phase. ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-29-2024-01-09-43-1763-PM.png?width=670&height=186&name=image-png-May-29-2024-01-09-43-1763-PM.png) #### Edit Actual Start and End Dates You can also edit the dates of the actual start and end, by clicking on the green **Edit** button: ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-05-09%20153430-png.png?width=670&height=190&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-05-09%20153430-png.png) ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-09-2025-02-39-05-1302-PM.png?width=200&height=179&name=image-png-May-09-2025-02-39-05-1302-PM.png) By modifying the *Actual Start Date* of a phase, you also adjust the *Actual End Date* of the preceding phase, with the exception of the Harvest Phase, where both dates can be changed independently. For example, to alter the *Actual End Date* of the Vegetative Phase, you would need to edit the *Actual Start Date* of the Flowering Phase. 🔝[**Return to topic list**](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#topiclist) --- ### Finish a Plant Batch Finishing a plant batch signifies that the cultivation is completed and all plants are harvested. Moving a batch to the finished means it no longer is displayed under active batches but rather under the finished batches tab. This action is only possible if there are no plants in the plant batch but can be triggered from any phase. ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Dec-19-2025-11-35-23-5538-AM.png?width=670&height=157&name=image-png-Dec-19-2025-11-35-23-5538-AM.png) 🔝[**Return to topic list**](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/life-phases-of-a-plant-batch#topiclist) -
