Awesome 🤩 How much were they? And were they pretty easy to acclimate?

#### Lindsey replied on 2025-05-20

Super easy to acclimate! A lot of places even sell acclimation kits, but you can easily make something similar with stuff you have on hand. The goal is to create a 100% humidity environment (I just get 2 clear plastic cups and tape one on top of the other so it makes a humidity dome) and then gradually introduce dryer air over 4-6 weeks by poking a hole in your container once a week. I got them in a 3-pack TC rehab mystery bundle for $30 😍 I actually ordered two bundles and overall got:

variegated philo micans  
Red Anderson  
variegated philo moonlight  
Green Congo nuclear  
Monstera albo  
Monstera aurea

Can I ask, why did you choose TC for those plants? Preference?

#### Lindsey replied on 2025-05-20

I love doing cultures as a way of getting pricier plants for cheap lol. As long as you don’t mind waiting a few years for them to mature, it’s a cool way to build your collection 😎 and so fun watching them grow up from tiny TC babies!

### earth2mik commented on 2025-05-20

wow!! where did you order your TC from? i’ve been wanting to start some of my own

#### Lindsey replied on 2025-05-20

I ordered from orange lake nursery! I’ve ordered TC’s from them a few times and never any issues. Do it! But warning- it’s addicting lol.

I just ordered my two from there today. I can’t wait to try it. I feel like it’s fun science to try!

### happysoxdonkey commented on 2025-10-08

I just purchased two monstera tissue cultures - albo and cream brûlée. Do you have any tips? Yours look great!
