How many plants do commercial orchid breeders work with?

[tmoney]

hey there, so i have not spoken to anyone at troy meyers, but considered their website info in with my previous comment. the folks i have spoken to personally are in germany, and they both required the same info.

i should state clearly that my opinions are only half baked, as we r learning this process in real time and we just don’t plain no enough people to contact about flasking we we have only reached out to mid-large scale commercial flaskers. after speaking with one of them they wouldn’t even take our capsules and only said we weren’t a major provider or customer and so needed to look elsewhere. not encouraging for beginners....especially when i believe in what we r trying to do and think we may be making some interesting things.

so yeah, if these more experienced folks are saying other things, it’s only cause they are exactly that, more experienced!!!

i should edit to say we do have another person who is willing to flask our seeds but i consider that a different situation and had it not been for the orchidboard we wouldn’t even have that. we r only seeking other flaskers out of respect for this person and the fact that they have a normal life and i don’t want to drown them in seeds and flasks. so mostly my original comment was attempted to be made from the perspective of a total outsider to this game (which we essentially are), and the responses are telling me we need to keep digging!
