Planting |
Transplants are grown when the customer wants a larger, more robust plant. A typical transplant is grown for one year, and then planted back into nursery beds and grown for another 1 to 2 years. Nurseries either grow seedlings specifically for transplanting, or use smaller stock that have been graded for transplanting. Mechanical transplanters use a vertical "shoe" to open the soil, and a wheel with clips places the seedlings into the slit at the proper spacing. |

Management |
Transplants are planted into rows, and the beds look similar to seedbeds except that the growing density is less to allow for faster growth. Transplant beds are fertilized, irrigated, and have the same root culture treatments as do bareroot seedlings. The transplanting process creates better caliper and roots than a comparably-sized seedling. Transplants are used for harsher outplanting sites, where animal browsing is a problem, or plant competition is severe. |

Planting |
A relatively-new stock type is known as a "plug transplant", which is produced by transplanting a small container seedling into the bareroot nursery for an additional year of growth. |

Development |
Plug transplants are cultured and harvested exactly the same as bareroot transplant stock. These seedlings have phenomenal growth rates and are preferred by customers that want a large seedling with a fibrous root system. |
