Diana, this was the very reason why I was going to start them in plug trays,
as I'd read that the roots hated disturbance (like poppies). My intention
was to "bypass" the early moving-up stage and let the seedlings develop some
height & root mass before moving them up. Have I gone haywire? Could you
share your method of sowing/moving up seedlings that have roots like these --
a regular seed flat?
Thank you very much for any comments. C. Carter, CA/Z9
