NEONATAL acceptance protocol — batch ID checks & reporting – PharmaRosa®

Quality acceptance and discrepancy handling – NEONATAL

Batch-identified acceptance, fast documentation, fast case handling

PharmaRosa® NEONATAL is batch-identified propagation material. Fast and fair case handling requires that the key points can be checked and traced at the time of acceptance. This page is a practical acceptance protocol: what you should check, which photos are needed, and how to report any discrepancies.

In short – 6 conditions for fast case handling

  • Batch identification: variety + tray number + quantity (10 pcs/tray).
  • Quick condition check: uniform growth stage, roots running through the plug.
  • Photo minimum: 3 images (tray, close-up of root/plug, label/ID).
  • Time = quality: potting/planting preferably on the same day; avoid storage in the dark.
  • In case of discrepancy: batch-identified e-mail + photos.
  • “Send it out dry” approach: avoid closed, humid storage.

Acceptance checks – what should you look at?

1) Identification

  • Variety name and batch code.
  • Quantity: 10 pcs/tray; the tray cannot be split.

2) General condition (minimum quality)

  • Uniform growth stage (depending on variety type typically around 8–10 cm).
  • The plug is filled with a strong root system (the basis of viability and a fast start).
  • No signs of major mechanical damage or extreme desiccation.

3) Post-acceptance schedule (critical)

  • Ideal timing of planting/potting: on the day of acceptance.
  • If you have to wait: cool–light–well-ventilated environment.

Photo minimum – 3 images to identify everything

  1. Tray photo from above (overall view, quantity, general condition).
  2. Close-up of the plug/root (root penetration, vitality).
  3. Label / variety ID (batch identification).

Tip: if several trays arrive, take 1 overview photo + 1 close-up per tray (sampling approach), and 1 label photo.


What counts as a quality discrepancy? (practical framework)

Typically considered as a discrepancy

  • Significant mechanical damage (at tray/crop level).
  • Signs of extreme, large-scale desiccation at acceptance.
  • Identification issue (missing or contradictory label/ID).

Important distinction

  • NEONATAL is living plant material: smaller individual differences may be natural.
  • Quality notification is most effective when it is batch-identified and documented.

Reporting a discrepancy – fast, batch-identified method

Please send by e-mail

  • Variety name
  • Number of trays concerned
  • Date of acceptance
  • Short description (1–3 sentences)
  • Photos (minimum the 3 images)

Prevention tips – so that you do not need to report a discrepancy

  • Plant quickly: best is on the day of acceptance.
  • Storage: only cool–light–well-ventilated; avoid storage in the dark.
  • Humidity: do not keep trays in a closed, humid space (fungal risk).
  • Technical start-up: substrate and irrigation should be prepared by the time of acceptance.

Questions about acceptance or discrepancy handling

If you are unsure, please send the acceptance photos (the 3 minimum images) and we will briefly confirm whether the situation is technically acceptable and what the best next step is.
