Why it matters
Fast establishment captures light earlier and sets up yield; weak rooting at transplant compounds into season-long underperformance.
When it appears
At and just after transplant.
How to identify it
- Slow, uneven establishment after transplant
- Transplant shock and stalled growth
- Weak early root development
How to manage it
- Reduce shock with even moisture.
- Support rooting with Kelp Boost and Root Boost; activate biology with Charge Bioboost.
