The Orchid Garden

Anyone Here Do Tissue Culturing ?

Question:

 Well soon as I can line up the jars I’ll be attempting it and see what I can come up with. I have relatively good access to general home tissue culturing practices but understand that banana may be a little different and a little more susceptable to contamination.  Thanks for the Orchid Idea. I enjoy them but really know nothing of them. I have a garden center relatively close that often does Orchid shows and seminars so I’ll have to check it out.

Scott, check out Carol Stiffs page for general tissue cultre info (and a home tissue culture listserver: http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/2011/MicropropBAN.html For banana specific info try: http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/2011/MicropropBAN.html For great info and fantastic pics of the process try: http://www.ifas.ufl.edu/~trecweb/rellab/banana.htm Good luck!
