Overall, this section of the master class will provide students with a solid foundation of knowledge on the principles of tissue culture and the skills to prepare tissue culture media for cannabis. Students will learn how to make their own media with the appropriate nutrients and hormones necessary for successful plant growth in tissue culture.

During the Plant Selection, Leaf and Node Sterilization section of the cannabis tissue culture master class, students will learn how to select and prepare the plant material for tissue culture. This section will cover the selection of the best plants for tissue culture and the techniques for cleaning and sterilizing plant leaves and nodes before introducing them into tissue culture.

Plant Selection:
- Learn how to select the best plants for tissue culture.
- Understand the importance of selecting disease-free plants and those with desirable traits.
- Learn how to collect plant material such as leaves and nodes without damaging them.
Leaf and Node Sterilization:
- Learn about the different sterilization techniques used in tissue culture, such as using bleach, ethanol, or other chemicals.
- Understand the importance of using sterile conditions and equipment during the sterilization process to avoid contamination.
- Learn how to clean and sterilize plant leaves and nodes before introducing them into tissue culture.

Overall, this section of the master class will provide students with the knowledge and skills to select and prepare the best plant material for tissue culture while ensuring a sterile environment to avoid contamination.

During the Cannabis Micropropagation part of the master class, the students will learn how to propagate cannabis plants using tissue culture techniques. The topics covered will include:

Induction: The experts will teach the students how to induce Cannabis growth in tissue culture. This involves the use of plant growth hormones and proper environmental conditions to promote plant development.
Intro to Sterilization: Proper sterilization techniques are crucial for success in Cannabis micropropagation. Students will learn the appropriate methods for surface sterilization of plant material to eliminate contaminants.
Plant Cuttings 101: Cutting plant material correctly is important to avoid damaging the explants. The experts will teach the students how to properly cut and handle plant material to obtain clean and viable explants for tissue culture.
Explant Preparation (Clean & Contaminated Plants Techniques): Students will learn how to obtain clean and healthy plant tissues and prepare them for introduction into tissue culture, as well as how to handle contaminated plant material to prevent contamination in the culture.
Bonus: Introduction to Tissue Culture Equipment: To start strong in their Cannabis tissue culture business, it is important to be familiar with the equipment and tools used. The experts will provide a bonus session to introduce the students to tissue culture equipment and their uses.

During this part of the cannabis tissue culture master class, the students will learn about the process of subculturing and resterilizing contaminated cultures in order to maintain healthy and viable plant cells for micropropagation. Specifically, the students will:

Learn about the importance of subculturing and resterilizing in maintaining healthy plant cell cultures for micropropagation.
Understand the steps involved in subculturing and resterilizing cultures, including the use of aseptic techniques to prevent contamination.
Practice subculturing and resterilizing techniques on contaminated cultures under the guidance of the experts leading the master class.
Learn how to identify and troubleshoot common issues that can arise during subculturing and resterilization, such as bacterial or fungal contamination.
Develop a deeper understanding of the best practices for maintaining and managing plant cell cultures to ensure successful micropropagation.

Cannabis tissue culture is not easy. And when it comes to adding plant hormones, you must know what hormone, in what concentration, and how to add it to obtain the best results. Grab this secret from the industry experts in this only masterclass.

Introduction to Meristem Dissection: Meristems are a type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells. Learn how they can be used for virus elimination in infected plants and obtain clean clones.
Meristem Dissection Procedures: It needs some hands-on experience to cut meristem out of plants without damaging the tissues. Learn how exactly to do it from the experts in the industry in this masterclass.

During this part of the cannabis tissue culture master class, the students will learn about subculturing and resterilizing contaminated cultures to maintain healthy and viable plant cells for micropropagation. Specifically, the students will:

Synthetic Seeds Techniques: Cannabis is a plant with tantrums. It doesn't like it when it’s too hot or too cold. But, there’s a way you can do the cold storage of the plant by using synthetic seeds. Learn how to make them and use them to store Cannabis for a longer time.

During this part of the cannabis tissue culture master class, students will learn about long-term storage solutions for their cannabis plants, specifically the use of synthetic seeds.

The focus will be on synthetic seeds, a technique used to store cannabis plant material at low temperatures.
Students will learn how to make synthetic seeds using sodium alginate.
They will also learn how to encapsulate cannabis explants in the alginate matrix and store them for long-term storage.
Synthetic seeds provide a practical solution for the long-term storage of cannabis genetic material, as they are easy to transport and can be stored for many years.
Students will also learn about other storage techniques, such as cryopreservation and slow growth storage, and their advantages and limitations.
