Great tutorial Ghazanfar, it has helped me no end.

How long do you leave the lights on for, and is there any relation to how long the lights are on for spathe development?

Thanks!

Great writeup Ghazanfar.

How much of the Murashige & Skoog mixture are you using per liter?

Also, how many multiplication steps do you use? Say you start with 1 plant in the initializing step. How many times will you transplant that before you start the rooting process?

Thanks!

Enjoyed your talk at the AGA. You should have given the talk on tissue culture as your doing it more for what we were looking for. If you want to sell some of them, you can hop on my site and throw it out there. I tell people a $40 min, makes it worth your time… You care if I use your YouTube video on my site?

Good stuff…

What are the light requirements before acclimation? Does it need to be kept under recommended light levels (i.e. under high light for high light plants like rotala) or does it not matter?

Nice work. The plants are doing well in my tank and my emmersed setup. One thing about tissue culture–a lot of plants, especially for a little tank. But I love the crazy tiger striping, Ghaz!!!
