Made the community. Go make a dummy post there so I can mod you. You may have to index the community on your server.
done!
Root cuttings can be safely mailed, it just takes a little set up. And a mindful eye on the weekly forecast

Generally, it should be local to the country at least and weather and time need to be minded. Seeds are included! Check out these for examples:
What a great idea!
