For mericloning (tissue culture) experiments, check OrchidMall.com suppliers and OrchidSource.com (commercial flasking media company). These offer tested, sterile media formulations.
Mericloning requires: sterile technique, specific growth hormones per genus, sterile containers, contamination-free transfers, and seedling acclimatization. Death rates are high without professional lab conditions.
Apply node paste (hormonal) to exposed nodes on green flower spikes, then place in darkness for 2 weeks. Rootone powder mixed with petroleum jelly works as DIY node paste. Simpler vegetative propagation for hobbyists.
