BRYONET

I have been cultivating Ceratodon spores by germinating them on agar
plates, picking off individual protonema and growing them in liquid media
before transferring them to soil, all in a growth chamber. Im still
working on the best soil mixture to use, but I would be happy to provide
more specifics.

Cheers
