Re: VFT race seed vs tissue culture
 

Interesting, have you ever tasted the multiplication medium? it looks like jello. It seems pretty clear who the winner was. And all those people were smashing tissue culture for neps.

Re: VFT race seed vs tissue culture
 

That is interesting... It is double size...

For TC, the most critical step is, hardening TC plant to adapt to normal environment...

But the VFT in the TC jelly doesn't have red traps........

Re: VFT race seed vs tissue culture
 

Thats because its still small.

Where to get TC jelly?Nurseries don't sell them so........

Re: VFT race seed vs tissue culture
 

Hi Marvin

Nurseries almost 100% don't sell them........If i'm not mistaken once i searched for it and found some website selling those agars and stuff......So check out the net.

Why do you need TC Jellies, Marvin? Just grow and propagate plants normally. Leave the TC to the experts. or else its just a waste of time and money when it gets contaminated.

May I know what lighting condition you keep your TC and your plantlet? Same conditions? What is light source? Interesting that the TC medium is light blue in color.
