GARDENING ON THE CHEAP: Transplanting Seedlings

🔍 By growing seedlings first instead of planting seeds directly into the soil, you can ensure 100% germination and select the healthiest and most productive plants for your garden.

🌱 Transplanting seedlings allows you to have superior plants in the garden, as opposed to sowing seeds directly, which may result in inferior plants.

💡 Using a gardening planting detail sheet helps with measurements and spacings for planting seeds or seedlings in the garden, ensuring proper growth and spacing.

🌽 When planting corn, it is important to follow the instructions on the gardening planting detail sheet, which may specify specific spacing recommendations.

📝 Using a dibble, or a half-inch doweling, helps with loosening the soil and transplanting small seedlings into the ground.

💦 Watering seedlings after transplanting helps the soil stick to the roots and provides them with the necessary moisture for growth.

⚗️ Applying nitrogen to newly transplanted seedlings helps them overcome shock and promotes healthy growth.
