The transplanteringsprosessen, or transplanting process, refers to the act of moving a plant from one location to another. This can involve moving a seedling from a seed tray to a larger pot, a young plant from a nursery to its permanent garden bed, or even a mature tree from one part of a landscape to another. The primary goal of transplanting is to provide the plant with more space, better soil conditions, improved light, or simply to reposition it for aesthetic or practical reasons.

Successful transplanting requires careful handling to minimize damage to the plant's root system, which is crucial for water and nutrient absorption. Before moving a plant, it's often beneficial to water it thoroughly, as this helps to bind the soil around the roots, making them easier to lift out without excessive disturbance. When digging up the plant, care should be taken to excavate a sufficiently large root ball. For larger plants, this may involve using a spade or even specialized equipment.

Upon relocation, the plant should be placed in its new spot at the same depth it was previously growing. The hole dug in the new location should be wide enough to accommodate the root ball comfortably. After carefully settling the plant into the hole, the surrounding soil should be gently firmed to remove air pockets and ensure good root-to-soil contact. Watering immediately after transplanting is essential to help the roots settle and reduce transplant shock. In the days and weeks following the process, consistent watering is vital for the plant's recovery and establishment in its new environment.
