Orchid Seed Sowing Medium Product ID: P723
Introduction
Description: This medium is a modification of P668 which has shown to be too high in salt concentration as a seed propagation medium. This medium is modified by reducing the major inorganic salts by ½x. The reduction of salt helps promote the germination of seed of many epiphytic & terrestrial species. Germination may be enhanced by adding 50 mL of coconut water (C195) per liter of medium.
