	For nearly every situation in which I need to have a plant's seeds, I use the {{Item\|plant clippers}} to always keep a backup of the plant; if no backup is taken, you're one step closer to having to ask cargo for new seeds, which ~~may~~ take 15 minutes up to the end of the shift~~<br>~~		For nearly every situation in which I need to have a plant's seeds, I use the {{Item\|plant clippers}} to always keep a backup of the plant; if no backup is taken and the plant dies, the problem varies based on how you handled the plant:
			*Was it a normal plant that you didn't mess about with?
			**You're one step closer to having to ask cargo for new seeds, which could take 15 minutes up to the end of the shift.
			*Was it a really good mutated plant, or a plant in which you put ungodly amounts of Robust Harvest, or, more in general, a plant that you can't obtain again without spending more time and more resources?
			**You likely now realise the mistake you made.
			In both of these cases, there is always the possibility that the plant still doesn't have the Seedless gene (in case of the mutation, maybe it gained it and lost it); consider these miracles, a green eye in the sky winking before looking away, and therefore unreliable.
