Last evening I transplanted two sterling plants from wine barrels to the ground. It's bad enough they were already not doing so well after some small grasshoppers had a feast some 2 weeks ago, but today i noticed the bines appear to be dying. Is this just shock from the transplant? The real question is what is the best method for transplanting? My cascades and mt.hood hops are already forming cones and are about 10'. I want to put them in the ground, but now i am too paranoid. Any advice on transplanting is truly appreciated
