Yes. I mentioned in another post that I have come across a source and
have
ordered some.

Must've missed that.. Y can still ahve fun making you're own if you
wish though.. Try Agar and up to 5% V8 carrot juice.. As long as it
starts off sterile (eg clean heat cleaned containers) and is set hot
then cooled) there is no reason why it might not work OK..

Where does one buy Agar?
What does it cost?
What is wrong with simply making up a weak jelly with ordinary "food" jelly?


As I said the tricky bit is weaning as plants grown like this may have
less 'normal' bacterial/fungal colonisation already in place compared to
conventional cuttings.
