| Propagation Method: | vegetative | ||
| ProductType: | Container (plug) | ||
| Stock Type: | 165 ml capacity Hillson Rootrainers | ||
| Time To Grow: | 16 Weeks | ||
| Target Specifications: | 15-cm-long, firm root plug | ||
| Propagule Collection: | Propagules were rooted microshoots. | ||
| Pre-Planting Treatments: | Rooted propagules were removed from sterile, glass tubes. The roots were gently washed under running water to remove any remaining agar. | ||
| Establishment Phase: | Rooted propagules were planted in rootrainers containing a 1:1 volume of Sunshine peat and perlite. Relative humidity was 90% and progressively decreased to ambient over the course of 4 weeks. Plantlets were kept in 70% shade and slowly acclimated to normal greenhouse sunlight over 4 weeks. | ||
| Length of Establishment Phase: | 1 month | ||
| Active Growth Phase: | Acclimated plantlets were then fertilized with 20:20:20 (N:P2O5:K2O) at 200 ppm N twice a week for 8 weeks. | ||
| Length of Active Growth Phase: | 2 months | ||
