Planting and TransplantingPlanting is simply putting an existing plant or bulb into the soil to grow and develop. The soil for this must be appropriate to the individual plant (See soil). Make a hollow in the soil where you wish to plant. Insert the root ball of the plant into the hollow and fill up with appropriate soil. Press the soil around the stem using both your palms, so that the root ball is compacted, ensuring good contact of the roots with the soil. Transplanting is simply replanting seedlings from a seed nursery to the actual site where the plants are required. This not only allows their systematic relocation but also toughens the plant and stimulate growth. Sometimes mature plants also need to be transplanted but here root damage from uprooting can have a disturbing effect. To minimize the adverse effects of transplantation shock on mature plants observe the following guidelines:
Note: If the leaves fall off sometime after transplantation, do not be alarmed. It is the natural protection mechanism of the plant at work. By shedding Its leaves, the plant reduces its moisture loss by way of transpiration, thereby preventing itself from drying out. New leaves will come up once the roots establish. Plants do have their own ways. |
