    Question: The transferring of young seedlings into another bed is termed as – (RJ ARO Horti 2022)

    Options:

    Hardening off
    Pricking
    Thinning
    Nicking

    ✅Explanation:
    Pricking is the horticultural practice of transplanting young seedlings from a seedbed or seedling tray into individual pots or a wider spaced area in another bed. This allows the seedlings more room to grow and develop a stronger root system before being transplanted to their final location.

    📌Other Options Explanations:
    -Option A: Hardening off: Hardening off is the process of gradually acclimating seedlings grown indoors to outdoor conditions before transplanting them. It involves exposing them to increasing amounts of sunlight, wind, and temperature fluctuations.
    -Option C: Thinning: Thinning is the removal of excess seedlings from a seedbed to prevent overcrowding and competition for resources.
    -Option D: Nicking: Nicking is a pruning technique that involves making cuts below a branch to inhibit its growth.
