Pretty sure that they will refund you and you will have to place another order that's how their system works. 30 minutes after I place my order I realized that I wanted to add more. I just made another order and paid the fee. I'm thinking he has many things going on and I don't want to trouble him with something miniscule as the price of a cup of coffee and a donut.☕️🙂

Even if you place 2 separate orders in the same week, both fees get applied as a credit towards the invoice. Although we are likely going to change the deposit figure for larger orders.
Hi Alex,
Since I was not refunded yet, is it possible to swap to a different variety? I have a lot of cultivars I am looking for.

Alex

Unfortunately You’ll need to submit a new checklist on the website. We do all the budwood checking on Sunday only. We processed the refunds this evening.

We do allow people to request dormant material in lieu of scions with active buds when they aren’t available for specific varieties, but you have to contact us in advance to let us know.

Also want to note that With regards to this discussion about the checklist “fee” , it’s really just a deposit towards the cost of the first scion. It only becomes a fee if people decide not to pay the invoice. That’s not what this situation was about .

Thanks Alex, I appreciate it. I just resubmitted another variety that Becky says is good to go. Looking forward to grafting the white piri!

Hey Alex,

Are orders closed on scions for now?

Thanks

That's interesting and exciting fliptop I may have to come visit you one day to buy a sample of fruit Black Gold Tong Dam🙂

Hopefully no more freezes or hurricanes here for a couple more years, bovine421, and I'll have some to share😊--bring some of your best and we'll swap!

Finally got some scions from Alex. White piri was my choice after much research. Scions are super fresh and healthy. Luckily i have buddy tape handy! Grafted onto a 30g alphonso(waste of a tree in Florida btw). I have grafted Maha Chanok onto the other half of the Alphonso. Hope all goes well!

Thank you sir! I decided to do this after the Alphonso, which had over 200 fruitlets, left me with just 1 mango still on the tree. My largest tree and gave me the lowest count of fruit. Very disappointing, but better varieties on it now lol

Happy to report an update on the white piri scions from TAF! I've purchased Mahachanok scions from a forum member 3 weeks ago with no pushing activity yet. One of the white piri scions I got from TAF 1 week ago has already pushed through the buddy tape!!!! Didn't expect to see that happen so quickly, but definitely glad with this result 😀

Received scions today from Tropical Acres Farms. The entire experience was excellent, and the updates throughout the process were much appreciated. Looking forward to future orders. Thanks, Alex and Becky and team!

Indeed. FedEx had the scions here the next day, fastest and freshest scions ever.

Anyone know what the chalky substance is on them?
