I'm going to be starting up a TC program at my university for orchids and was wondering what lights everyone uses for their tc seedlings.
Thanks all for your input!

TC=Tissue Culture? No flasks at the moment, but when I do have them in house they're under LEDs with the rest of my in home collection.

I had never imagined them for this application, there are quite a few folks having great luck using my LED plant lights for flasks.

Dr. Arthur Sale had a nice article on TC lighting in one of the Yahoo group "Home Tissue Culture" newsletter.

Sorry Ray, it seems like I missed your post and the item, in any case, we won't be buying the lights for a while as we already have enough for the time being in the form of an incubator but eventually we will need more lights

You wouldn't happen to have a link by any chance would you?

SFLguy I have the PDF file, but not the link. If you can't find the newsletter online (it is the "HTCG Newsletter No 8, November 2013"). I may be able to forward the PDF file to you.
