bijillon wrote:What is it? I know it's a callusWell, it was a mass of undifferentiated cells (callus) before, on hormone containing media, but since being switched to hormone-free media, the cells are being differentiated (turning into root and maybe shoot tissue) which is causing the root hair growth, and white/green/red blobs.
Happy Growing,

bijillon wrote:So it a ball of root and leaf tissue together and they'll separate?Currently, yup! I'm hoping they start to form individual plants that I can break apart, but I might have to chop it up depending on how it continues growing. I might even have to put it on more hormone to get little plant shoots to form, but it looks like that might be unnecessary, with how well it's been differentiating the newly growing tissue.
Happy Growing,
Dillon

coffeenflowers wrote:Uh. So admittedly I'm not familiar with plant tissue culture but I do mammalian and insect cell culture for my job and my first thought is that the fuzzy brown stuff is contamination (aka mold).I would've thought so, expect it's not spreading to the media, and the hair's formed on the part of the callus that was originally going to be the seedlings root.
