Is this type of genetic engineering possible?

It is literally DIY at home, is this a hoax? Can it be done with other plants?

I can pretty much say without even watching it that it is complete bullshit..... we can barely do it with chimps yet... let alone plants and all at home.... common man really!

Edit: just watched it lol

the plant he is using is already sensitive to touch so yeah..........

Making money off YouTube views. Welcome to the internet.

Even if this was possible it would be difficult trying to identify then isolate the gene that you want in the other plant, oh well Back to tissue culture.

Agrobacterium looks interesting...
