Product code: HE1008495
Product Description
Please note that our plant cloning kits are only suitable for use in education.
This kit provides the necessary media and instructions for propagating small cauliflower plantlets from cauliflower curd. This technique, known as Meristem culture, has been chosen as an introduction to plant culture because of its relative speed and simplicity.
No special facilities are required and provided the instructions are followed carefully, plantlets should be visible in 6-8 weeks. Once grown, the plantlets can be transplanted into seedling compost and 'grown on'.
Additional supplies of growth medium are available to allow teachers to adapt the technique to meet their own needs.
