Acclimatization began once the plants were “deflasked” in preparation for test substrates and greenhouse life (Figure 4(a)). After removing plants from their culture containers, excess media was rinsed off and they were placed on trays to drain. The plants were then treated with ProTeKt 0-0-3 fertilizer by misting with a spray bottle (1 mL/L). The tray was then covered with a clear plastic humidity dome for 24 hrs (hardening phase). After 24 hrs, the dome was removed, and the plants were transplanted into their respective substrates and transferred to the greenhouse (Figure 4(b)).
