Is there a best time of day to transfer a nuc? Any other considerations such as weather?

Thanks.

Watercarving.  When there is no rain or wind and you feel comfortable yourself with the temperature.  I wouldn't go it when it is really cold. I see that you have no respones to this question.  My responding to the post will bring it up to being more current again, hopefully you will get some answers, this questions needs some answers,  ;) :) :)  Have the best of this wonderful day, Cindi

I was just curious if there's a best time of day: morning, noon, evening.

Thanks.

The very best time to transfer a nuc is when the weather is decent and you have a few extra minutes.  Time of day is immaterial as long as the sun hasn't set yet.  Cloudy is okay too.
