does anyone know if this formula would work for flasking phal i do not want to waist my seeds


Sugar: 20g/Lit
Fertilizer: 3gram 20-10-20 soluble, no urea (urea is not good for seed germination). According to some sources, this is almost the same MS formula.
Bannana: 100g/Lit
Coconut water: 100ml/Lit fresh from grocery store.
Vitamin: 1 tablet of centrum /Lit
Distillated water: add to make 1 Lit
Agar: 8-10g/Lit
pH: 5.2

Try looking here and asking again. There is a member here who has photo proof that she has done Phals. in flask.
Since I am unable to post URL yet, I hope you can C&P address below.

nope. You'll have to go to ( other orchid forum Deleted ) (can't post URL) and look under propagation in forumns. Titled, can a normal person grow orchids from seed. Half way down thread, there are photos of flasks.

I hope this helps.

Hi BlakeeBoo,
How long did it take to germinate in days?
Did you do a green pod or were the seeds dried?

they were green i also added Ga3 (gableric acid) the seed germination depends on the species i had a cheap hybrid it only took about a month

I have luck with the cornstartch mix. in fact I use it with all spec. just b sure to add calcum 4 catts.

green capps are great but careful not to get any pod matterial in with your seed - contamination- its easy to wash seed so why not
