Hey guys, I believe it was one of Adam's threads where he germinated seeds/cuttings in sealed jars? I remember part of it involved boiling the media to sterilize it. I'd like to try his technique but couldn't find it in the search and didn't see it in this sub-forum. If someone has it bookmarked, I'd REALLY appreciate the link.

Thanks!

Hi Mia:

Sounds like you are referring to in vitro seed germination. In vitro means "in glass" and is a type of tissue culture.
There is a tissue culture section on the forum. Below is a link th the Tissue Culture FAQ.

Here are three discussions that Adam participated in or created, having to do with Venus Flytrap germination in distilled water:

Hey Mia - I have it bookmarked.

This is the thread you're looking for. The original post doesn't contain much info, but keep going through it and reading his replies; Adam went into much more detail later in the discussion after some questions came up.
