Ok here's a good pic of the san pedro. Most all of the areoles are swelling and sprouting new shoots. It's more than a week faster than the initial explants reacted. The plants are adapting to their new environment 

And some lophophora williamsii.

For anyone that's interested in tissue culture, this page: http://www.oup.co.uk/pdf/bt/slater/ch02.pdf Might be a good starting point. It gives the composition of a typical culture medium, briefly describes the roles of the different growth regulators, gives examples of them, etc. Edit: the ratios etc that they give surely won't be optimised for cacti, but I still think it's a page that is worth reading...

bump/question this thread is amazing
una, do you forsee any problems in transfering these back out of the liquid medium there in into soil?

There should be no problems what so ever. In a class i took some time ago, we got these african violets with chimera's on them. We isolated the tissue that was exhibiting the chimera and grew out african violets on the culture then transfered back to soil. No problems. Unfortunately the chimera's didn't last and the violets turned green again after some time.

Is it possible to grow Salvia the same way? What kind of media should I use then?

>>Is it possible to grow Salvia the same way?
Yes.
>>What kind of media should I use then?
Agar as the mediu, and proper phytonutrients and most important hormones. Plant Tissue culture is quite a complex thing compared average horticulture so much so that most colleges devote whole classes usually 101/102 and upper level tissue culture 300.
I suggest getting a book and startting from there and also a good supplier of IAA, GA, and the like. Because it all depends on the ratio of plant hormones as to whether you get roots, shoots, or both, or a callus .

I think I'd like to take one of those classes. Another one I'd like to take is photoshop. The photoshop tutorials are just about worthless. I'll check to see if any tissue culture classes are offered in my area but I doubt it.

Salvia can be grown in tissue culture quite easily. But.....my medium recipe is a secret, that's the way things are in tissue culture land...No one shares their recipes and it's often a long trial and error process to get some decent growth.
Here are two pics...
This plantlet has just started to root...

These guys are ready to be transplanted to soil.

But could you please give a light introduction of some ingredients to start experimenting with? And please give a short description of what IAA and GA is.... YSr

IAA and GA3 are plant growth regulators. They signal the plant to development in a certain way; shoots, roots, callus etc.
A small introduction to plant tissue culture can be found here.

Do you have some more links to pages where I can read about diffrent mediums for plant tissue cultures?
I'm very interested and don't know where to start. Love working with shroom-cultures om agar and liquid karo.

There is another group of people who decided to keep their findings to themselves, they enslaved humanity for world domination. Why keep everyone in the dark on the best methods for things?

i don't see how una's secret formula compares to enslaving humanity in any way. una has a lot of money, time, research, and hard work invested in his business. he is not obligated to give away what he has worked so hard to find. there is nothing wrong with reaping the benefits of your hard work. una has pointed you in the right direction. if you are really interested, do some research and follow the path that you have been shown.
