The plants are most easily damaged in the following stages:
------------------------------------------
a) When seeds are just germinating
b) When leafy cuttings are just handled
c) When plants are just been potted
d) If unsuitable potting soil has been used
e) If conditions are suddenly made more stressful
f) If proper watering is not done regularly
g) If potted plants have been allowed to root freely through in the ground, because then they loose their main roots when moved
h) During the first week after planting
Tropical nursery stocks are needed to be hardened gradually, not subjected to sudden shock treatment or abrupt changes in growing conditions.
