if so, how do you use plant ID tags?

eyemthatguy

what do you use for plant id tags, if anything?

and what information do you record on each one? why?

I almost bought plant markers at OSH, and instead bought 2 plastic folders from office depot and cut my own. All that I have on their is plant of origin and cutting date. I need to make new ones for the flowering end of things Im thinking to record the date of flowering or the day I put into flower.

share your uses...

I just keep a number on the container with a sharpie and if I take clones I number their container with the same as the plant they were taken from...and put a little seed or flower to indicate start dates and date I start flower on my calendar...that seems to be enough for me...great with a limited number of strains and plants....can't imagine how I would keep up with some of the huge multiple grows of others....I would have to quit my job and stay home with the girls...hey that actually sounds great...someday perhaps

What a great thread! I have a done a lot with this as I have 9 different larger types of plants plus a few that where gifts as well. I have truely botched it up in the past and I still don't know for positive what I am flowering now as I screwed up so badly. And what I have found that if it is loose and not attached to the plant and you have several varieties, through transplanting and moving around plants you are bound to get screwed up. So what I am doing now is marking leaves with sharpie markers and using tags attached to branches or leaves. I have even found that using tags you can get from grocery bulk food marts are great. I know, somewhat larcenous but hey, we pay for the food! Anyway, here are some pics of ways I am trying now. Love to here other ideas. For clones and younger ones, I even reuse flower tags written over in sharpie markers.

Peace
