@plantsinjars, I have a request. There is a new type of pineapple that's come on the market that's pink. To prevent people from growing their own pink pineapples at home, the developers remove the crowns from the pineapples before they are shipped. Sometimes there is a little bit of crown leaf tissue still alive from incomplete cuts of the crown, but I have been unsuccessful getting any of them to take using cutting methods of propagation. Can you demonstrate how to sanitize and grow a pineapple plant using a crown leaf from tissue culture?
there is a study done called "studies on micropropagation of pineapple" (atawia et al) that tells you their method and protocol for propagating one! you can find it for free online. good luck!
If you're a fellow enthusiast and lack an orbital shaker table, you can use a bed-slinger 3D printer like the Ender 3 to achieve the same effect. By writing some G-code, you can make the printer oscillate perfectly to continuously stir your sterilizing solution. Also you're videos are amazing thank you for all the knowledge! It's been about 10 years since I fired up my laminar flow hood
The number 1 thing I learned here is I need a new stir plate. Mine CANNOT get a full liter (or more maybe) of water ripping and running like that without the bar flying off.
Can you please do a video on fruit plants like blueberry? And I watched one video where you mentioned all plants can be tissue cultured. So would be interested in knowing how to culture vegetables like onion, chives which don't really have stems but have a bulb.
I guess I am one of the lucky few that got to discover your chanel in it's early stages 😍😄 P.s I still can't get over the fact that you hurt yourself with the scalpel by accident 🥺
Hey i like your channel, but i know nothing about tissue culture at all. why would creating tissue cultures of plants be useful? Is it to replicate or clone a specific plant in a sterile environment? Please elaborate!
Hey! I have a question about tc. Is it possible to create a verigated plant in tc? Like take the non verigated version and use hormones to get it to verigate? I have been wondering this for a while, and can't really find anything online that answers this directly.
Nope! That was just a shelf kept at ambient room temp. Some people store tc in the fridge to slow down growth if they are trying to preserve genetics in vitro
@@plantsinjars Cool, thanks for articulating. It would be interesting if you have the ability to dive in depth into preservation with refrigeration. Not sure if that's something you're interested in ever covering. I'm sure there's a lot to it. Thanks so much for making these awesome videos
I hate these dumb poachers. What value do these plants have if they are sold at any hardware store? Theres only one natural environment for them in the US and these awful people just go in and take them like it's nothing.
