how do I move a good sized plant without droop?
Hi all,
I moved a decent sized plant at the weekend but its really suffered by doing this and just wondering how you guys do it. I know I could just lop off the leaves etc but Id prefer to move it without much loss and growth speed. cheers Ben |

Next time pop out a giant root ball .I mean giant. Water/Hydrate the plant before and after you transplant. Keep the plant hydrated. |

I'll take one but its carnage
I think rootball size was way too small, that and going from a polytunnel to outside combined has made a right mess. I had no alternative though - it was getting too big for the area I planted it in the tunnel - Im not one for forward planning! Thanks Ben |
