| Just the shock free transplanting only requires digging down 5" or so. Might need a mini-hoe! The stumps are for when the plants get bigger. I used a shovel, dug down about 1 foot. |

| I can't wait to try this! Wilt is always a problem when I'm planting my second season of warm weather crops in Houston. |

| Yesterday in my garden it was 109 degrees F and none of the cukes transplanted this way wilted at all, even though they were in full sunlight. |
