About In Vitro

In vitro plants are cultivated in sterile conditions, ensuring they are free from diseases, algae, and pests. One notable advantage of in vitro plants is their ability to produce multiple plants from a single seedling, leading to faster growth and multiplication compared to plants grown in traditional baskets. In Vitro plants are also much safer to be sent, then bare root or potted plants. Tubes we are sending them, provide better protection.

Before being sent out, the plants are carefully placed in tubes with special transport media to securely hold them. The number of plants per tube may vary depending on plants size. Our plants transplanted in tubes are under quarantine control circa for 14 days so we can be sure, they are clean, healthy and safe to send.

 

How to acclimate in vitro plants?

Gently remove the plants from the tube.

Thoroughly clean the plants under water, ensuring any gel residue is washed away. Tap water is suitable for this purpose.

Divide the plant into smaller pieces as needed.

Acclimate the plants to a high humidity environment initially. If necessary, gradually reduce the humidity over time.

Plants are also suited to be transfer on another growing medium in sterile conditions.
