==Origin==
[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=English#ca._1100-1500_.09THE_MIDDLE_ENGLISH_PERIOD Middle English] ''transplaunten'', from Late Latin ''transplantare'', from [[Latin]] ''trans''- + ''plantare'' to plant
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15th_century 15th Century]
==Definitions==
*1: to lift and reset (a [[plant]]) in another [[soil]] or situation
*2: to remove from one place or [[context]] and settle or introduce elsewhere : relocate
*3: to transfer (an organ or tissue) from one part or [[individual]] to another
==Description==
In [[agriculture]] and gardening, '''transplanting''' or replanting is the [[technique]] of moving a [[plant]] from one location to another. Most often this takes the form of starting a plant from [[seed]] in optimal conditions, such as in a greenhouse or protected [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nursery nursery bed], then replanting it in another, usually outdoor, growing location. Botanical transplants are used infrequently and carefully because they carry with them a significant [[risk]] of killing the plant.
Transplanting has a variety of applications, including:
*extending the growing season by starting plants indoors, before outdoor conditions are favorable;
*protecting young plants from diseases and pests until they are sufficiently established;
*avoiding germination problems by setting out seedlings instead of direct seeding.
''Different'' [[species]] and varieties react differently to transplanting; for some, it is not recommended. In all cases, avoiding transplant [[shock]]—the [[stress]] or damage received in the [[process]]—is the principal concern. Plants raised in [[protected]] conditions usually need a period of acclimatization, known as hardening off. Also, [[root]] disturbance should be minimized. The stage of [[growth]] at which transplanting takes place, the [[weather]] conditions during transplanting, and treatment [[immediately]] after transplanting are other important [[factors]].
