Transplanting of tomatoes, you can cut the roots?
Ok let me see if I can explain this to where it makes sense. My friend has an Aerogarden, if you do not know what is a very expensive system of farming that these covenants buy pre-seed that is put in these little holes in the top of the container, which is filled the bottom of the water and growing things. So my friend has three tomato plants growing in it and since moving I told him I would take the plants and transplant they. Well once I get the system home and really looked, I think it's designed for that. The roots of tomato plants were all tangled together and have grown under these plastic rods in the system. The bottom line is, no matter how careful I am taking these plants the roots are going to cheat or will I have to cut them. This can have cut the roots and the plant still live and thrive? If so, exactly how I do this? I'm new to gardening and I'm growing lots of vegetables in spring and summer. Thanks in advance.
Be nice! Only dropped as many of the roots that you need to get the plants outside. Leaving 50% of the roots ,,,,, you should be fine. When planting,,,, the plant near the middle of the mother on earth. The stem grows roots down the sides.
