Everyone knows how to do something. Whether it's playing a guitar, gardening, carpentry, knitting, painting with watercolors, caring for an iguana...we've all acquired certain skills in our lives, and it's only right that we should want to share the results of our hobby and also share what we've learned about how to do it well.

On this site, I'm going to talk about my own hobby, Tissue Culture. I'll give a bit of history on the subject itself, as well as some background on how I got involved in it. I will also include some instructions on how Tissue Culture is performed, as well as any tips or tricks I've acquired through the years. And, of course, I'll include pictures and links that will help you understand the process.

The science of Tissue Culture may be intimidating to some, however, no formal training is required.  Success will be based on following simple directions and sanitation practices.  Trial and error will be an influence on success and one need not get discouraged if the initial outcome is less than expected.  Practice and patience will help lead  to the knowledge and skills of a successful Tissue Culturist.
