Transplant tips to minimize plant shock in gardens
Garden extension specialists advise careful transplanting to protect roots and foliage. Water thoroughly to moisten soil to 6-8 inches deep and use light sun shade after moving to reduce sun shock. A bushel basket or newspaper cover can shade plants while allowing air and light, gradually removing shade as plants strengthen.
