Tissue Culture- Let's discuss!

[harris7]

oh yea and your wrong to think that they modify food crops for sweetness, frost etc... To date only one product has any benefit to consumers. Which was the flavor saver tomato (you know the one which caused stomach lesions in rats). It was recalled because they didn’t store well. All other products are generally roundup ready resistant.

They are made so monsanto can sell more round up.

who is listening to the propaganda

harris7 Reviewed by harris7 on 11-05-2006. Tissue Culture- Let's discuss! I want to get a tissue culture discussion going here! It's my newest little geek obsession... Here's what I've got so far: Good points: You can get thousands of exact genetic replicas from one donor plant with minimum stress to the donor. You don't need to use a slip with multiple nodes! You could overnight someone an envelope with a few leaves and it's like getting a clone, you just have to do the rest of the work. So spreading your favorite genetics to your buds (hee hee) would be Rating: 5

The genetic modifications to staple crops- soy, corn, etc. benefits one entity, frickin' monsanto, ADP, DuPont, the whole seed production industry.
Don't get me started.
And monocultures.... brrrr... gives me chills.

TC, isnt that where you take a small section of the plant and make it grow?? It sounds hard, my friend, took a bud from his plant, planted it, and it grew roots, and is just a tiny bud plant, i was so angry when i found out, i sit around working out shit for my plants all day long,(i do get better crop alot of the time ) and he just waters his plants and doesnt really care about them, and he managed to make a bud grow roots in driveway soil, i dont know how he does it, he must have lady luck on his side i guess.... oh well, sorry if im completely off subject haha, just ignore me...

Yup, like 1 square cm of leaf.

I'm sorry, but that is hilarious. You should go steal some soil from his driveway if it's that magical!

yeh, i would but knowing me im not as neglectfull as him so i wont get the same results lol

I looked into this a couple of years back- Getting root growth is apparantly pretty easy, but this particular plant has an atypical response to shoot-induction regulators.

Of course that could have been the particular cultivar they were working with in the research I saw- It was intended to prop Fun-free stock for the fiber industry.

Lemme look around and see if I still have the referances.

well i just found out that i have access to all the equipment to do tissue samples (except an autoclave) but i might have access to one of them too.

hmmm, I see a science project coming on.

I wish i had a kid, i could teach them how to do a tissue culture for grade 7 he he

LOL Awesome. Borrow a neighbor's kid!
You can use a regular canning pressure cooker. Ask your grandmama or your old auntie Bernice! Tell her you are making jam.

Hello every one I am new here and I am Stash 1, I was Stash but I got a new email and forgot my password a long time ago. This thread caught my eye. I gotta get in on this but it's been a few months since the last post. I hope all here have not lost all interest. I am an old school mushroom grower so I know almost all that is needed to know and have all the equipment stored away. I am also the guy that discovered using Colloidal Silver to change sex in pot plants. I don't want to do this all alone. Is this thread dead?

[stinkyattic]

Naw it isn't, and since I just had to ditch my grow because of my snitch ex, I have all sorts of time on my hands to experiment... and we just got a spankin new laminar flow hood with UV sterilization at work... I will be practicing on legal plants of course so my boss doesn't hit the ceiling
