I like to just loosen the roots a bit when I pull them out. according to the square foot gardening book, if the roots are really compacted in the bottom of the little containers, you can trim off the compacted part before you plant the rest of it. who know? Amanda
vitamin B1 plant starter helps when you want to prevent transplant shock, and its a great way to boost your plants

@GettingThereGreen Thanks for the tip. I didn't loosen any of them at all and they all maintained shape when transplanted.
