Your Spring Transplants Are Dying Before They Root. Here's the Soil Mistake.

If your spring transplants are going limp or yellowing within the first week of planting, the problem almost certainly started before you put them in the ground. In this episode of Farm Fresh Homestead, we cover the three soil conditions that kill transplants before they root: soil temperatures below 60°F for warm-season crops, compacted beds that haven't been properly amended, and pH drift that locks out the nutrients your plants need. Learn what your trowel is actually telling you when you push it into spring soil — and how to fix the conditions before you plant, not after. New episodes weekly on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
