Hi all. I'm new to the forum and tissue culture. I've recently gotten my first batch of nepenthes seeds into the culture vessels. 48 hours later there is a pool of fluid on top of the agar. The seeds appear to be floating on the liquid. I can't find anything about excess moisture in any of the texts I've been learning from. Is this something I should be concerned about? Is it too late to do anything about it?

Hi Lori, do not worry too much. This happens sometimes but for me has not been a problem.
How much gelling agent did you used?
