Nice VFTs. How long did it take for them to germinate??

Re: Tissue Culture Thread
 

Thank you

it takes 4-6 weeks for germination in TC.
But then they grow very fast.
The last 2 seedlings i sow in august. So they germinate in September.

You can see how fast they grow, every day

Re: VFT TC Pictures
 

may we know what TC medium you use and what preparations you made in terms of chemicals, etc. on your seed and on your leaf cutting? Did you use hormones, etc?

I'm hoping that I can finally buy a TC kit and start a project similar to yours.

Oh and where do you keep the bottles? What lighting?

Hi Leafs are little bit tricky and i recommend to learn first TC with seeds.
I use 1/4 ms for seeds, for leafs just add 1ml/L Bap.
Seeds i sterilise 15min in 10%Bleach
Why you want to buy a kit?
You can build a simple transfer box with gloves. thats cheaper.
