Its no big deal disturbing seedlings roots. My friend moved his seedlings by pulling them right out and breaking off all the lateral roots and leaving the tap root. I am a little more careful. I try and preserve the root ball.

I worked at a propagation nursery and we would propagate seed in trays like that and move it. It worked for all the trees and shrubs we were growing, its a good method. We would just use a hand trowel shovel to dig them out starting at the corner/edge. Just be careful and be ready to transplant 2-3 at a time if necessary. The root balls should break apart and be pretty obvious.

I recommend doing it that way, feeling out the root ball because it may preserve more of the root ball than just cutting it like a cake. Best to divide them by pulling the rootballs apart. Its really self explanitory. Just water them once they are done and keep the fan down. :smoke:

Got some pics of ES X Leb, hang tight we'll get them sent out to ya. :smoke:

i was asking a head mason who was sharing a table with my family today. what his secret for long life was? i thought he would respond 'adrenochrome' but no he replied' how easy his plates clean ' i thought maybe because the food is always so good the plates were empty. maybe that was his analogy .. no , it was how easy they clean is a sign of the quality of food , and that is is his secret to long life. meeting a good woman who can cook saved him, he explained

these trays are so flimsy they will all pop out as i lift the tray . earth quake central
Yeah, may want to invest in actual propagation trays. They are an open grate of 1/4 inch holes on the bottom to optimize drainage and root prune.

A flimsy tray you have to be careful with because it wants to sag in the center and will compact the soil and possibly damage roots. I guess if you just move it once before transplant its not an issue.

Had Early Skunk x Lebanese out at the farm while I was getting squirrel corn out of the field. Its delicious, the flavor is unique and refreshing and reminds me of spring and the growing season! It was raining a little bit and was hovering around 50 F and all I could think was this tastes like spring. Keeper, but it needs some selection to get a little higher flower density and performance with some shade. :smoke:

Yeah, but if they have to be moved a lot, need to support with a board to keep it flat. I value being resourceful, its a way of life. I do it wherever possible. These flats are riveted together to make them double deep too for more root mas before transplant and better water retention in the heat.

Haha, I do that too! I run out there and get the squirrels fed without being fully dressed sometimes. Those guys have to survive all night. Wildlife are always up early.
