Healthy soil and sustainable growing

You might have better luck if you limit stress and moisture loss by shading the plant and misting the leaves.  Heavy watering of an immature root system could rot it.

Subject: [Livingontheland] Fig transplanting question

I just got some fig starts and they've severely wilted, though there were immediately given some water and potting soil.  Will they come back from the roots in time if I just keep watering them?

 

thanks,

Carrie
