Did I kill my Zucchini Plant?

I initially planted two Zucchini plants too close together. Yesterday I dug out one of them and moved it into another hole about 8 inches to a foot away. I tried to use most of the same dirt from the initial hole and also used Vitamin B-1. This morning it's sagging and looking lifeless. Did I kill it? Can I do anything gto help it?

It should be fine. Keep it watered - and shade it from the hottest midday sun for a few days.


Before you know it, you'll be overrun with squash.
Reply:Whenever you move a plant it is always stressful for it, so during this period you should not add any new products - no fertilizers, no vitamins, etc... Simply use soil and water...after 2 months or so you can begin introducing it to fertilizers and other additives. I'm not sure if it can be saved, but try this: take it out of the soil you put it in, wash off the roots with water and get as much of the soil off as possible, then move it to another spot where the soil is not fertilized and no other things are added. Also, make sure that the plant is getting the right amount of sunlight - look at the healthy plant - if it seems to be growing well, try to copy its growing conditions for your new plant. Once you make the changes, give it about a week and see if the plant regains its health then. Sometimes it takes a while for it to be nursed back to health, but it could be done. Good luck!
Reply:It will probably be fine. Sometimes even a quick move will shock a plant into wiltedness. My neighbor brought over tomato plants and planted them in my garden Saturday. In the 15 minutes they were out of the ground they wilted badly. We just watered them and now most of them have come back to life. I expect the others will shortly. Some plants are just a little more delicate than others. Don't fertilize now, it would cause too much stress. Wait until it regains its' former beauty.
