Flasking Services
Orchid Enterprise Incorporated offers flasking services to commercial as well as hobby growers. Our lab and flask-nursery are operated under environmentally controlled conditions and have backup systems to insure their safety.
Each flask contains 20 seedlings. Seedlings will be sent out of flask, ready for potting up when they are large enough to be grown on their own.Fees:
Flasks are $20.00 each and are deliverable when the plants are ready to be removed from the flask. There is also a $20.00 non-refundable set up fee for every seed pod we process which includes the first 20 seedlings.
When ordering select 1 setup fee for every pod you send us and tell us the number of seedlings you want from each pod.BEFORE YOU SEND US YOUR SEED POD:
1)email us to insure we are open and ready to receive your pods. Several times a year, we will close our facilities due to travel or extended holidays.
2)Tell us how many seedlings you will want from each seedpod.
Germination is not guaranteed! We are not responsable for any lack of germination or contamination of seed.
We work with both Green pod and loose seed. Loose seed should be mailed in a sealed PAPER envelope inside a larger envelope or box. Green pods or open pods should be mailed inside a sealed paper envelope in a box. Do NOT use baggies or plastic bags to hold your seed or pods. Plastic can cause fungal and bacterial infection of the seed.
We do not keep records of your cross. We code your seeds according to your name and seed pod. We DO require the genera of your seed pod in order to select the proper growing media. If you wish us to label your cross with a code number you select, we will be happy to do so.
Because of CITIES regulations we may require a signed statement assuring us the plant material being provided to us is not in violation of the CITIES agreement.
