Coconut Milk to clone plants?
Comments (9)This should help shed more light: Cytokinins "The effect of cytokinins was first reported when it was found that adding the liquid endosperm of coconuts to developing plant embryos in culture stimulated their growth. The stimulating growth factor was found to be cytokinin, a hormone that promotes cytokinesis (cell division). Almost 200 naturally-occurring or synthetic cytokinins are known, to date. Cytokinins are most abundant in growing tissues, such as roots, embryos, and fruits, where cell division is occurring. Cytokinins are known to delay senescence in leaf tissues, promote mitosis, and stimulate differentiation of the meristem in shoots and roots. Many effects on plant development are under the influence of cytokinins, either in conjunction with auxin or another hormone. For example, apical dominance seems to result from a balance between auxins that inhibit lateral buds and cytokinins that promote bushier growth" from - https://www.boundless.com/biology/plant-form-and-physiology/plant-sensory-systems-and-responses/auxins-cytokinins-and-gibberellins/ My conclusion is that coconut milk should be used in conjunction with a rooting hormone, not just left in diluted coconut milk concoction itself. Willow tree tea mixed with coconut milk recipe, might work. Here is a link that might be useful: Plant Hormones...See MoreFrozen coconut milk
Comments (11)I wanted to make coconut ice cream today and found this recipe here, but I did not follow it exactly. Instead I used 1 can (18 oz) coconut cream 1-1/2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup coconut milk 2/3 cup sugar 2 tbsp Amaretto I had considered making a custard, since I was using some coconut milk (which is very thin and freezes solid), but I thought the Amaretto would soften it sufficiently. I bought the coconut cream (Savoy brand) at a Thai market, and it was larger than I expected - more than two cups. I have no idea how this will turn out, but I will adjust the recipe next time if I do not love it. Kevin does not like coconut (except in curry, and I do not like coconut in curry), and so it is best for me to make something frozen if I use coconut. Coconut ice cream is one of my all time favorites, and it reminds me of being on the beach in Mexico, where the ice cream is made from fresh coconuts. I was inspired to make this ice cream because I bought some coconut milk eggnog and like that as much as I do regular eggnog. I'm also thinking of buying some eggnog that I like and putting it directly into the ice cream maker. Low temps lately have been in the mid to upper 50s, and so it hasn't been all that cold here, although it's supposed to dip down to 45° Christmas morning, which is about as cold as it gets here. This week-end it is not supposed to get above 60°, which is pretty rare, but I will be eating ice cream anyway....See MoreBest baseboard/trim color with coconut milk walls
Comments (1)Not a fan of accent walls, unless there is somthing special about it. I would paint the walls milk chocolate and the trim and baseboard coconut milk in semi-gloss finish....See MoreWhat to do with unsweetened vanilla coconut milk
Comments (12)I think I could drink it if it didn't have the vanilla flavor because it would be bland and neutral. But that vanilla flavor is just so wrong. And I am a huge fan of vanilla. I like the idea of feeding it to the plants. It's unsweetened so I don't think it can do any harm....See Morecentralcacyclist
