# Welcome to c/PlantSwap @ Mander.xyz! > In this community, plant enthusiasts worldwide can swap plants and accessories. — — ## Notice Board This is a work in progress, please don’t mind the mess. — — ## Guidance * Items Permitted to Swap: Plants, cuttings, seeds, crafts, and garden and plant accessories of all kinds. * Sales Posts: Limited sales posts allowed; no shop spam. * Gratitude: Use the review thread for thanks, no separate posts. ## How to Post * Specify your country and/or region in your post title in brackets, e.g.: [Canada] or [Chocó] or [Malaysian Borneo]. * [Have]: What you’re offering. * [Want]: What you’re seeking. * Details: Include clear descriptions and images. * Responsibility: If your plant is known to be invasive in some regions or climates, note this in your post. ## Trade Lists * If you have a list of several plants that you want or are offering to trade, post your list as a comment in the featured thread and keep it updated. Alternatively, link to your list that you keep updated elsewhere. (External lists must not be hidden behind javascript or floating banners. Suspicious links will be removed.) * If you have high-value plants available that you would like to trade only for the high-priority plants on your “Want” list, one way to clearly indicate this is to separate your lists into tiers (e.g. something like this [https://amazonrestore.codeberg.page/badass-fruiterrarist-land/plant-wish-list/]). — ## Propagation Advice work in progress ## Shipping Advice * Plant Health: Check for pests and disease before swapping. * Pay attention to the weather. Make sure to prepare for cold or heat waves. Ice packs and hand warmer packets can be used when packaged appropriately. * Old Tupperware is very versatile and useful for shipping with wet paper towels. * Some seeds have a short viability, so it makes sense to ship them in slightly moist growth medium (such as sand or coconut coir) so that they sprout rather than die in transit. — — ## General Community Rules 1. Don’t throw mud. Be kind and remember the human. 2.
