Transplanting into a cover crop can either be done by hand or with a transplanter (RJV 600 Plug Planter). There are a few factors to take into consideration when transplanting into a cover crop mulch. First, the time of transplanting must be planned ahead of time. The method and time of cover crop desiccation will have an effect on when transplanting can occur. Second, the depth of the mulch after desiccation will have an effect on the transplanting process. If the mulch is too thick a transplanter may have a hard time setting plants. Also, if the soil beneath the mulch is to wet it may be difficult to pull the transplanter, and the furrow made by the transplanter may not be refilled .
