Templates#
Templates are pre-made setups that act as starting points for use within Cycles. Templates are designed to streamline the process of setting up new cycles and ensure consistency across your projects. Templates are categorized based on their functionality, such as Area Templates, Light Templates, Resource Templates, Container Templates, and Genetic Templates.
Areas#
Area Templates allow you to define the physical space or growing area that will be utilized in a grow cycle. Whether you’re using a grow tent, a dedicated room, or dividing a larger space into separate quadrants, the Area template provides flexibility to tailor your cultivation environment to your specific needs.
Lights#
Light Templates serve as a blueprint for defining the lighting configurations utilized within grow cycles. Whether it’s LED, HID, or other lighting types, this template enables you to capture crucial details like PPFD values and other specifications.
Resources#
Resource Templates provide you with a comprehensive toolset to catalog and manage various inputs utilized during the cultivation process, ranging from nutrients and compost to soil and inoculants. These templates facilitate tracking of essential components necessary for plant health and growth, allowing you to optimize your cultivation practices.
Containers#
Container Templates help facilitate the tracking of containers utilized by plants within grow cycles. These templates enable you to monitor container types, sizes, and associated grow medium mixes, providing valuable insights into plant cultivation and transplanting activities.
Genetics#
Genetic Templates serve as a pivotal tool for you to meticulously monitor and document plants cultivated within grow cycles based on specific genetic strains. These templates offer a systematic approach to recording essential metrics such as harvest weight, flowering characteristics, and genetic attributes, enabling you to gain valuable insights into plant performance and optimize cultivation strategies.
Conclusion#
By utilizing templates in Cycles, you can streamline the process of setting up new growing cycles, ensure consistency across projects, and save time configuring each aspect from scratch. Experiment with different templates and customize them to suit your specific growing needs. Happy growing!
