Hi all,
I just viewed a very interesting video tape created by Bob Whynott in
Mass. He shows a technique for flasking that doesn't require a laminar flow
"clean box." He shows how the work is done in the atmosphere of steam
generated by a pot of boiling water! He claims a very high success rate.
Has anyone else ever heard of this or used it? Sure would be handy for the
occasional replate I need to do.

This is one of the methods commonly used before the introduction of
laminar flow boxes. I read a description of it many years ago in an
orchid book
by a German author whose name escapes me at the moment.

I suspect several other authors have described it too--maybe Rebecca
Tyson Northern?
