How to plant your seedlings
- Dig a wedge-shaped hole that's deep enough to cover the roots.
- Without bending or twisting the roots, place the seedling in the hole. don't worry about adjusting the roots unless they're wrapped around the stem.
- Put the soil back in the hole. Hold the seedling upright and plant it so the "root collar" is level with the ground.
- Gently pack the soil around the seedlings to remove air pockets.
