FAQ
XPlant is a community-driven platform and shop focused on organic plant tissue culture and sustainable propagation. We make kits, tools, and guides so anyone—from hobbyists to schools— can grow plants in clean, eco-friendly ways without a full lab.
Our shop curates organic culture media, growth boosters, jars, and starter kits, with a vision to make plant science accessible and inspiring.

Begin with our Intro to Tissue Culture Guide. It walks you through creating a clean workspace, preparing organic media, taking explants, and growing your first plantlets at home.
Not at all. One of our main goals is to show you how to grow plantlets with a clean table, simple tools, and good habits—no expensive equipment required.
Our Starter Kit includes everything you need: organic agar, MS-based nutrients, growth hormones, and step-by-step guides. It’s designed for small-scale experiments at home or in classrooms.
These are optional boosters you can mix into your culture medium to help plantlets grow faster, root more easily, or resist contamination. Think of them as natural “vitamins” for your cultures.
Yes! Our kits are designed for education and creativity. They are safe to use under adult supervision and make an excellent STEM learning project.
Absolutely. We use plant-based ingredients, recyclable packaging, and emphasize low-waste methods so plant science can grow alongside environmental care.
Currently, we ship throughout South Korea. International shipping is being prepared—sign up for our newsletter to get notified.
Cultures need indirect light, stable room temperatures (20–25 °C), and patience. Avoid opening jars frequently and let nature do its thing.
Not at all! XPlant is for anyone curious about plants. We provide easy-to-follow guides and community support, no lab coat needed.
Contaminations in XPlant are tracked in two layers:
This separation allows one contamination event to be linked to multiple plants or explants, each with its own context and resolution state.
- Link Severity / Status: This refers to the relationship between the contamination and a specific plant or explant. Each link can have its own status (active/resolved) even if multiple links point to the same contamination event.
- Log Severity / Status: This refers to the contamination event itself, describing its intensity (high/low/medium) and overall status. It's the source of truth for the contamination details.
