We should call this "Natural Tissue Culture" cause everything is pretty much natural.

Anyways, if you add honey, would you have to use less sugar?

I did try once dabbing it in honey then do it same as normal....put it in the medium.It did grow a bud but it died dunno what happened

Hmmm, that's interesting... Maybe it was too sweet? Or the honey oxidized too fast producing alcohol? I've heard that alcohol kills vfts when sterilizing them for in-vitro, shouldn't be any different for pullings in peat. Maybe when the honey dried it choked the pulling?

This is interesting!

Wow.. now this is interesting.. how much vinegar per cup of water? I don't have lab equipment. I want to try this!

Me too! I'd like to know the amount of everything used; sugar, vinegar, & water. Is that the only 3 ingredients?

Some vinegar?! So I just throw some random amount of vinegar in and it works like a charm every time? I have a hard time believing that...
