• Track and document drying timelines for each batch, escalating deviations to the Post-Harvest Supervisor.
• Transition dried material into cure containers at appropriate moisture levels; burp and monitor cure cycle per SOP.
Bucking & Trimming

• Maintain production output targets without compromising quality or compliance standards.
Compliance & METRC Record-Keeping
• Accurately record batch weights, waste, and transfers into the METRC seed-to-sale tracking system in a timely manner.
• Ensure all plant material, packages, and waste are properly tagged and tracked per Ohio Administrative Code 1301:18.
• Maintain complete and legible batch records, drying logs, and environmental monitoring documentation.
• Assist with internal audits and regulatory inspections by providing accurate records and ensuring dry room readiness.
• Report any compliance discrepancies, inventory variances, or SOP violations immediately to supervision.
Sanitation & Facility Standards

• Properly clean and sanitize trim equipment, racks, bins, and tools between batches.
