Hi Roby,
I'm a new member and I found very interesting your post about seed disinfestation using Sodium Hypochlorite fumes. But unfortunately I can't see the picture of your setup. Could you please post some update ? It would be great if you have a document describing your method.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Regards,
Francois.

Hello Estacion,

Roby didn't reply me. I have understood the process is a dry fumes. But I would like to have the picture of his setup. His post was quite old and I'm not sure that Roby is still active in this forum.

Thanks and best regards,
Francois

Maybe to adapt for disa seeds ; no infection but no germination, maybe the disa seeds are not strong enough for 4h sterilisation...
Thanks a lot to Roby !

Updating : in that time I also sowed Dendrobium and it did succeed as well. I got 52 plants and some are starting to flower for the first time now. So I still use the sytem of Roby with pleasure.

Nice flowers, and I like the look of the plant too!

Is it a hybrid? If so, what are the parents plants?

[alaind52]

It is a botanical one, Dendrobium antennatum.
