How-To Manuals (25%)
This section will include how-to factsheets of important practices and key events in poinsettias production. Each entry should be between 300 and 500 words and could be used as a reference for your (future) assistant grower to use as a guide to complete the task. Be sure to consider and include any safety procedures if they are required in the task.
Seven (7) how-to manuals are required:
- Receive poinsettia plugs.
- Pot poinsettia plugs.
- Pinch poinsettias.
- Mix fertilizer.
- Water and/or fertilize poinsettias.
- Measure poinsettia heights.
- Package poinsettias for sale.
*We will be learning and practicing these tasks in our face to face classes together. The how-to manuals can be completed as we learn each practice throughout the course.
