Maaz Bro, the price of individual chemical will be too much. For example, Just good brand Agar agar (500gm min size) will cost you about 1.5k...forget about rest!! A full scale Govt. R&D or a Commercial scale production unit like Tropica will think twice before Purchase all of them

Don't worry about the chemical and requirement. I can arrange atleast 20% discount for all the chemicals.

20% is not enough.... we want it freeee

seriously Mr. Maaz, why do you want to do tissue culture? Indian shops nowadays have sooooomany varities and frequently. I dont think it is worth experimenting

to discourage

Already I have several chemicals. So those can be go for free.

thanks marsaiko

Rajiv Ji pls update me what kind of Ferts and chemical you used in past for these so i can have some knowledge about this..

Hi All, I’m new here and this is my first post.

I am interested in aquarium plants and happened to see Maaz’s post. I am also interested in plant tissue culture.

To answer Maaz’s question yes it can be done at home. I have been doing plant tissue culture at home for the last 5 years. I have a small spare room that I use but it can be done in an area that doesn’t have too much air movement or it can be done in any room if you make a glove box.

I started out using a glove box made from an aquarium turned on its side. They make great glove boxes. I made a door that swung open and drilled two holes so that I could put my inside. I taped thin plastic gloves on coupling that went through the holes. It worked very well. I was inexpensive to make. I can post pictures of the door if you like.

The chemicals or nutrients for the media can be purchased prepackaged, already measured out for you. In the U.S. a packet to make a liter of media costs around $1.75. Of course there are charges for shipping. I can suggest places to get the chemicals. You can use a microwave for sterilization of the media but if you can get a pressure cooker that would be much better.

I made a map on Google to help connect people who do plant tissue culture around the world. It is fairly new. More people will be added as I get requests to put a marker on the map for them. http://goo.gl/maps/1FYQm

Also, I made videos about my experience getting started in plant tissue culture. I put them up on YouTube. I do need to remake some videos. The videos are from a few years ago. I learned a lot since then and need to update the videos with new information. You can find them here: http://www.youtube.com/user/fbt2007
