Rules for the use of Senescene Room CW564

Senescing plants must be transfer to the senescence room (CW-564) in a tray. Label your tray with your name and the name of your supervisor.
Specific shelves are not assigned to growth rooms. All trays must be dated based upon the time they enter the room. Trays can not stay in the room for greater than 2 months, after which point they will be discarded and the supervisor charged with a clean up fee.
Senescing plants are excellent sources of pathogens. Therefore you should not store clean pots, trays and domes in the senescence room, but in the dedicated spaces. To reduce the risk of pathogen spreading, do any work that you need to do outside the senescence room before entering the senescence room.
