Everything people ask me about the plants, the shipping, the soil, and the stand. Don't see yours? Just ask on the order page.
Yes. Every seed packet from Texas Roots is open-pollinated, meaning you can save seed from your plants and it'll come back true year after year. No hybrids, no patented varieties, no need to ever buy that variety again.
Yes — that's the whole model. Cuttings are rooted and established before they ship, then damp-wrapped so they travel well. They're packed the same day they ship and arrive in a few days. If one doesn't make it, I replace it once for free.
Most of my plants grow in a house-blend live soil — a base built up with compost, Texas topsoil, and natural additives. For more expensive plants I start from a FoxFarm base and build from there. Some plants I grow hydroponically. The goal is always living, biologically active soil for anything destined for your garden.
Yes. Everything starts in my backyard greenhouse tunnel in El Campo, Texas — no warehouse, no drop-shipping, no mystery supplier. When you order, you're ordering from plants I grew and propagated by hand.
If you're local to El Campo, the roadside stand is stocked from greenhouse overflow. Take what you'd like and leave what's fair — cash in the box or scan the Cash App tag, $Hydroponically. It's restocked through the growing season.
Completely. Every article, guide, and resource in the Almanac is free for anyone, forever. I wrote them to be the resource I wish I'd had starting out. No paywall, no email gate. Share them freely.
Seeds ship anywhere in the US as a flat letter. Live cuttings ship nationwide too, though a few states have agricultural restrictions on certain live plants — if there's ever an issue with your state, I'll let you know before charging you.
Order seeds or cuttings, tell a friend, share the free guides, or if you're local, visit the stand. That's it. This is a small operation run by one person — every order genuinely helps it keep going.
