Protocols for Gametophyte Culturing

Past Event Details

Learn how to grow kelp seed without relying on wild sorus—giving you more control over timing, contamination, and seed quality. Josh Masel, Technical Manager at Hortimare, joins the GreenWave team to introduce two new Hub courses that cover:

– Setting up a gametophyte nursery

– Painting gametophytes onto spools for optimal growth

– Rearing seeded spools for outplanting

These techniques help reduce pressure on wild kelp populations, all while improving your seed production. This webinar supports the launch of our newest courses in the Hub, Building a Gametophyte Seed Bank and Propagating Seedstring from Gametophytes.
