"Excellent. Watering is the first thing you do when you transplant. 3 points."

Qaz wasn't sure why she said that...maybe because she just got off her broom...buzzing around in the sky like a busy bee.
He eyed Qaz curiously. "I think I will just attract them. Keeping them is out of my line of work."

He nodded. "You will notice irrigation systems within the greenhouses. 3 points."

"Ah yes, all of those are important. Do try to get more specific, however. Those are important for any plants, really. 2 points."

"Timing is also important. Certain plants need to be transplanted at certain times in the year. Fall being a principal time for transplanting."
Erikson nodded. "That is true. Though often you would want to transplant before the last frost, in early spring. 2 points."

"Well done, two points to each of you."

"It is important to leave a large root ball, Professor, since otherwise the tree will put its efforts in to growning roots rather than directing growth and nutrients to the fruits. It is also important to do this in the right season after pruning."
"Do remember that not all fruit-bearing plants are trees. Widen your mind, Hermy. However, roots are always important, and definitely more toward what I was looking for. 3 points."

"Now, I was actually looking for quite a bit of a different answer. For smaller plants particularly, since trees make this act difficult, you must pick the blossoms from the plants their first year. Any ideas as to why?"
