    I just moved my plants from one outdoor location to another outdoor location last night and when I checked the plants today, I found them to be severely droopy. They normally don't droop. Does this always happen after transplanting them? Are they dying? Is there something I can/should do?

    If they were planted "in the ground" you, almost certainly, cut a good portion of the root system - resulting in shock. Moving plants that are "in the ground" is usually only done as a last resort, shock is fairly common unless done with great care. Even though they look pretty droopy, give them a couple of days and they should snap back unless the roots were severly wounded.

    If they were in pots, that's an extreme case of transplant shock.

    Transplanting should always be done as quickly and gently as possible, with as little interferrance to the plant as possible. Keep the rootball as large as you can manage. It is best done at night or during the coolest part of the day.

    Yeah man, I don't know too much about weed, but I do grow all kinds of other herbs and stuff and whenever I transplant something, it always seems to get that next day droop, but a good day of sun and watering will bring it right back.
