https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/0a8fa017-b1c7-42a3-a065-d4caf8906dd8 http://www.edibleacres.org Basic information here on planting out a fresh package of herbaceous plants from our nursery. In this case we're demonstrating with Stinging Nettles, but the basic ideas apply to most bare root dormant plants... Open package ASAP, check that plants are moist and in good shape. Contact us or other nursery ASAP if there are problems at this point., Dip roots or whole plant in fresh water, to rehydrate and rinse of sawdust/packing material. This helps the plant recover from shipping and reveals what you actually have going on!, Decide if you want to plant out in it's permanent location, and if so, open the soil and plant it in, with a good generous mulch and a clear label., If you aren't ready to plant out, you can always pot up plants in healthy potting mix and grow it on in a sheltered place like a greenhouse or house. These potted plants can be slowly eased outside after threat of frost and planted in later spring or even in the fall after a season in a container. Be generous with pot size!, https://www.paypal.me/edibleacres - A simple and direct way to ‘tip’ to help support the time and energy we put into making our videos. Thanks so much!
