Hello Sir
The plants are transferred to net pots/ pro tray for acclimatization after they fully develop shoots and roots in the bottles. The rooted plantlets are transferred to pots filled with suitable substrate and are watered. This operation is carried out on an open bench. These pots are then transferred to the green house for 4 to 6 weeks. During this process, they are given fertilizers and treated like plantlets obtained by any other means of propagation. After the plants are acclimatized fully, they are transferred to poly-bags. At this stage the plants are completely hardened and are ready to be planted in the field for cultivation. Hardening units can be set up in sites away from the micropropagation unit.
