One day your plants look healthy, the next theyโre drooping, yellowing, and stunted. By the time you notice the signs of transplant shock, itโs already too late.
Plants donโt just โget overโ transplant shock. When you move them, delicate feeder roots are damaged, soil health breaks down, and water uptake stalls. Growth can slow for weeks โ if the plant survives at all. For fall gardens, that lost time is fatal. Every day counts when youโre racing against the season.
