Storage and Handling Tips
- Store our living plants either at room temp or in the fridge.
- Plants in fridge will be usable for 1-2 weeks and in a glass of water will last longer and may even continue to grow!
- The product label will indicate which method is preferred.
- Fridge: put small amount of water in plastic bag and keep in fridge.
- Room Temp: put plant in glass of water. Water line should be no higher than halfway up the pot otherwise plant will suffocate. Check every 2-3 days to ensure that plant roots are reaching water.
- Always wash your produce but wait until you ready to eat it to maintain freshness.
