Nepenthes Tissue Culture

[arvin555]

I wonder if we can make a subforum for "nepenthes propagation" though it is not such too much a hot topic recently, maybe it might help sort out some of the topics.

Going to my main question... I am wondering, I read somewhere that IBA is a rooting hormone or chemical. IBA is used in Tissue culture.

I think I may have it from my TC kit that I was able to purhase from Kitchen culture kit.

My question is....

I wonder if I can use IBA on Stem Cuttings to help promote rooting of cuttings of Nepenthes?

Or will it be detrimental in terms of maybe promoting fungal or microbial growth on the stem cuttings, maybe even killing the cutting instead?

I really want to try out water rooting some of my Neps, which reminds me I will post a request for update on Shawn
