LP Nursery Container Rouging Thinning

UPDATED ATTACHEMENT with corrected clauses all other items stay the same. In the Lucky Peak Nursery Greenhouse, often multiple seeds are sown into each cell of a styroblock/plastic tray, the container in which seedlings are grown. Once the seeds have germinated, we need to pull out or clip all but one plant in each cell. This document explains the need for contract help and how the process should be done. The target number of seeds per cell does not mean there will be two seedlings in every cell. Some cells probably received more and some received less than intended. It is recommended that interested bidders inspect the LPN greenhouse before submitting a bid. Scope In all, 6,260 styroblocks/Plastic trays (approximately seedlings) need to be thinned. These blocks contain 112 or 128 plug cells. The blocks are on rolling benches in the green house and on stationary metal pallets in outdoor irrigation sites. There will be multiple species of conifers and one species of shrubs. Most of the blocks will be sown with 2 seeds per cell, however the range will be from 1 to 5 seeds per cell and the actual number of emerged seedlings depends upon the germination rates of each source. Lucky Peak Nursery will sow on three different occasions. Due to delays from new administrative regulations, thinning needs to begin as soon as possible.
