Default Re: Root ?

When someone wants a type of naner that I only have potted, I hit the rootball with a hose with jet nozzle. When all the dirt is gone I trim off all the oldest roots as long as there are plenty of young white ones.

To plant - - splay the roots in the hole and it will take off fine.
To overcome xplant shock, and guarantee success, dust the wet roots with mycorrhizae powder -- then fill in.

Even so --- most naners are tuff and it shouldn't matter in the long run.
