    Melting Tissue Cultured Plants - Go Emersed?

    Emersed Rack

    While working on getting my new fishroom together, I ended up jumping the gun and bought a few tanks with the Petco dollar per gallon sale. A few LFS's as well as local clubs are bringing a lot of plants in and I just wanted a place to store some plants as well as grow them out and propagate...
