Introduction:
This medium is a modification of our Orchid Multiplication Medium (P723) by the deletion of charcoal and agar. It was originally developed for the multiplication of plantlets from Phaleonopsis flower stem nodal segments. This medium when used in combination with Orchid Maintenance/ Replate Medium (P668 or P748) provides a complete plant propagation cycle.
This medium has been used for protocorm production of Cattleya and Cymbidium species. The pH of this medium should be adjusted after adding a gelling agent and prior to sterilization.
