I have these and they're ok quality for the price. I propagate a lot of clippings and the slickest deal is a small plastic fast food cup filled with water and your clipping with room to breathe, and put that inside of a ziploc bag near a sunny window.

If test tubes were your thing, and you wished to scale up your propagation operation, a pack of test tubes and a rack would do the job inexpensively. You could store your seeds this way too.

Plastic is fine, and there's no need to be sterile or RNase-free. Polypropylene is durable and translucent, clear enough to monitor root growth. Polycarbonate is crystal-clear, but somewhat brittle and could crack when dropped.

I've standardized on 15 mL and 50 mL tubes, and properly-sized racks to match. 15 mL tubes are small and dry up quickly, but they could be used to splint irregular-shaped cuttings. They're also a good size for seed storage. 50 mL tubes provide more than enough room for most cuttings. Self-standing centrifuge tubes are convenient because they could be used temporarily without a rack, but I'd still highly recommend a rack for long-term use to mitigate the tipping risk.

What's a good, small plant to just leave in there perpetually?

I have three test tube hangers in sunny windows with wandering jews in them. Been doing well for 3 months. I fertilize them every 2 weeks and top off the water weekly. Some algae growth in the tube but I think it looks better.

Why the ziploc bag? Warmth (like a mini greenhouse)?

Pothos is a great set it and forget it plant to put in there. I had one on my table in a small vase with just water that I topped off every week or so for about a year. I finally planted it as it had a ton of long roots and the next day squirrels dug it up and ate it.
