What are the reasons tissue-cultured orchid plantlets are not good

Tissue-cultured orchid seedlings are not only difficult to grow, but also have a low survival rate. The low survival rate is related to the special propagation method of tissue-cultured seedlings: the heavy use of hormones and chemical nutrients makes the orchid seedlings weak in constitution and extremely fragile, with poor adaptability to the growing environment after being taken out of the flask, and they tend to stall in growth, neither dying nor thriving. If they are legitimate tissue-cultured orchids, the flowers they bloom should be the same as before, unless the wrong goods were sent. In short, tissue-cultured seedlings are generally not suitable for home cultivation during the weak-seedling stage, because these tissue-cultured seedlings themselves have low dry matter content and poor disease resistance, resulting in a low survival rate and a long cultivation cycle in home growing. Many unscrupulous vendors often pass off ordinary varieties as rare varieties to sell for money, because tissue-cultured seedlings make it hard to distinguish the characteristics of each variety (they basically look alike). If you want to introduce tissue-cultured seedlings of precious orchids, it is recommended to do so at agricultural and forestry research institutes that carry out orchid tissue culture, where quality and variety are guaranteed.
