Good morning all from British Columbia!

Should inbe trying to straighten out this tap root before i plant it ? I don't think so for the fear of braking it,but I would like someone with more experience opinion.

Set her in the soil just like that. She will straighten herself out.

I sprinkle DYNOMYCO on the tail and gently put it in the hole as it is.
Don't try and do anything to it.
It'll go where it needs to go by it's self.




Stay safe

I’ll echo what the experts said, “Don’t mess with it. It will straight out on its own”.

Nature knows best. Let her handle it.

Pretty much a 100% guarantee that the root will break if you try to straighten it out.

If it had been planted in soil the bend would straighten out underground an without being seen. That is what pushes the rest of the seed and the cotyledons up above soil level so that they can get light.
