What are the best practices for introducing nursery plants into my garden?
I’ve been cultivating my organic flower garden for several years now, and I’ve had a couple of successful seasons, but I’m always looking to optimize my processes. Recently, I purchased several plants from a local nursery, and while they looked healthy at the time, I’m worried about how to properly introduce them into my existing garden ecosystem. I've tried hardening off plants before, but I’m still unsure about the timing and environmental factors, like humidity and sunlight exposure. My garden has a mix of sun and shade areas, so I'm trying to ensure that the new additions won’t disrupt the balance I've established. Can anyone share their best practices or tips for transitioning nursery plants to ensure they thrive in my garden?
