NOTE: Taking care of Tissue Cultures requires more expertise. It is recommended only for very experienced plant people, otherwise they run the risk of experiencing lower survivability rates. Because of this, sellers of Tissue Cultures who have buyers that file chargebacks with their bank for purchases may be subject to having those losses passed on to them from Palmstreet. Excessive chargebacks for a particular seller may also be cause for suspension or permanent ban from the app.
