This right here is vanilla. It’s the seed pod of a white orchid plant, and it’s got thousands of tiny seeds inside that are growable. So I got my hands on one so we could try to grow a vanilla plant.
I’ve never opened up one of these things so I couldn’t find the seeds at first, but then I realized that the seeds are so tiny, the dark flesh inside the pods are actually the seeds! And my mind was blown.
At first, I thought you could just grow the vanilla seeds on paper towel, but when that didn’t work, I learned you need to use something called a culture or tissue growth medium to allow the seeds to actually grow. So I got some. And I tried growing some vanilla!
Here’s what happened.
