Helping to prevent transplant shock...

Guys,

This might seem a really dumb question (I'm new to this), but would a general purpose feed go some way to helping prevent transplant shock? I've moved some sycamore saplings about 1-1.5m high (late I know) as I need the shelter.

Would like to do as much as possible to mitigate the risk as I realised I've left things rather late.

Cheers
Paul.

I'd have put some bonemeal in the planting hole first Paul but you could sprinkle some around the trees and water in

 

And keep on watering in, right through summer. And if they they do fail, let me know and I'll happily send you a big bag of the seeds that fall on my lawn from next door's tree every autumn.

 

Cheers for the advice guys...Will try the bonemeal tomorrow These saplings do have a habit of finding themselves EVERYWHERE... Just not where I want them! Thankfully I have no neighbours to wind up by the aerial bombardment of seeds!!
