When do I attach a METRC tag to a plant?

When to Attach a METRC Tag to a Plant
Apply the plant tag once the plant reaches the vegetative stage; do not tag clones or seedlings that might not survive.
1 • Determine when to tag
a. Observe the plant until it becomes vegetative—meaning it has established growth and is ready for the vegetative stage.
b. Do not attach tags to clones or seedlings that might not make it; wait until they become stable plants before tagging.
✅ Tagging plants at the right time keeps your cultivation compliant and reduces wasted tags.
