A brave soul! Have you done tissues cultures before? The idea of it sounds fun but nerve wrecking at the same time.
1 mi piaceI have acclimated before. It is a boob clutching experience!!! ๐ ๐คฃ I'm going to try my hand at the actual tissue culture portion here soon. I'm excited.

1 mi piaceThey are tissue cultures "Invitro" meaning they basically the bubble boy of plants. The TTC companies take a node or plant leaf and put it onto media that has ggrowth hormones. And then the plant multiples. But instead of getting 1 plant, ypu can get 100s from just a single node. They usually grow them in jars, and then they move them to these bags for shipping purposes. These ones came from a company called Orange Lake nursery, though not sure their source. Ive also gotten some from etsy. I have some coming directly from Thailand this week.
1 mi piaceYou can basically purchase invitro plants for much cheaper than a plant in the store, because there's only a few months into it. And there is a scale for morbidity as they are really sensitive, since they're used to 100% humidity and zero contaminatecontaminates
