Last year I planted this container of chive seedlings some time last year. It overwintered in the kitchen garden. Now it's growing again. I want to give them lots more room.
This is the before photo.
They looked pretty root bound.
Rather than tease the roots apart, I just sliced through the soil with a knife.
All of the roots seem to have reached outward, then wind around.
I sliced it like a cake, into wedges.
Then planted in a much roomier container.
I don't think these will need much TLC. They should do fine, until they overgrow this container too.
I find it much easier to grow chives in containers, than in-ground. Much easier to keep weeds out.
