How to Grow TC?
How to Grow TC?
- Unpack: carefully remove the tissue culture from the sachet in a clean environment. We recommend using gloves to minimize contamination.
- Clean: gently rinse the plant in slightly warm water to remove all agar residue. Ensure the roots and leaves are fully clean, and remove any unwanted residue such as mushy leaves and roots.
Transfer the plant to a fresh bowl of lukewarm water with a mild anti-fungal or disinfectant solution (e.g. a few drops of 10% povidone-iodine). Leave submerged for approximately 5 minutes. Note: Always research the correct dilution ratio beforehand. - Plant: place the tissue culture in the 1LAB TC Kit, designed for optimal humidity control and care-free growing. The kit includes a premium semi-hydroponic substrate mix, providing the ideal balance of moisture and aeration for early acclimatization and growth.
4. Acclimate: start with a fully closed humidity dome to maintain near 100% humidity for the first 1–2 weeks. Gradually introduce airflow by opening the ventilation over time, allowing the plant to adapt to lower humidity conditions before removing the dome entirely.
5. Repot: once the plant has developed strong, healthy new roots, it is ready to be repotted into your preferred substrate. Do not rush this step, a well-established root system is key to long-term success.
