Keikigrow Plus is the original keiki paste developed over 30 years ago by Dr James Brasch of Plant Hormones Canada. Keikigrow Plus can be used to induce keikis on Phalaenopsis orchid flower spikes or produce new shoots on orchid bulbs or growths. It is also used to propagate Cacti, African Violet chimeras and Nepenthes carnivorous plants among many other uses.
Keikigrow PlusBEWARE! Recently immitating and fake Keiki paste has started being sold. Some even use 'Plus' in their title trying to get buyers to think that they are buying genuine Keikigrow Plus. Look for the Keikigrow Plus logo, shown in the second photo in the listing, which is on all genuine Keikigrow and Vitagrow products. Only Keikigrow Plus is made to Dr Brasch's formulation.
It took Dr James Brasch many years of research at McMaster University in Canada to develop and perfect Keikigrow Products. You can read about this research in the American Orchid Society's respected journal "Orchids" The journal used to be called "The Bulletin of the American Orchid Society". Here are some of the publications:“You Can ‘Meristem’ with Hormones,” Bulletin of the American Orchid Society, Vol 49, No. 10, October 1980, pp. 1123-1132. (with Ivan Kocsis)
