T =  Transplants are seedlings that have spent a year or more in a transplant bed.
A transplant bed provides the baby seedling more care than it would receive in
a field and more room than it would have in a seedbed.  The results is that a
transplanted seedling will have a more fully developed root system than
that of the untransplanted seedling.
