HI,
You can also go to a supply place and pack up more.  The farmers who come to
our local Farmers market but them by the hundred.  Or just use garbage bags
when you run out.  When did you say you are moving?

Dave,

That's wonderful! 

I have a big stash of shopping bags.  Probably isn't enough bags... but, I
can always use roll bags that are also lying around.

Christian: When I moved from New Jersey to Oregon I moved about 75 siberians
each with their own clump of dirt in plastic shopping bags from the local
market. They were deposited at a friends house because the ground wasn't
ready. All that was required of him was to give them a slight watering once
a week for about a month. They were then planted with little or no
noticeable problems. I still use that method when pressed for time and need
to "refresh" the soil. Held this way, I've found that plants will be fine
for at least 10 - 14 days out of the ground if they are kept in a cool,
shady spot.

Dave
