- From Ground: First, water the oregano plant to dampen the soil. Then, dig a wide trench around the plant using a shovel or spade, ensuring the plant's root ball remains intact. Carefully work the spade under the root ball to lift the plant from its original location.
- From Pot: Water the plant and allow the soil to drain. Gently tap the sides of the pot to loosen the soil, then invert the pot and gently guide the oregano plant out, keeping the root ball intact. If the plant is root-bound, you may need to cut the pot away to avoid damaging the roots.
- From Seedling Tray: Ensure that the oregano seedlings have grown their true leaves. Gently separate individual seedlings by teasing apart their roots, or use a small tool such as a fork to lift them from their cells, taking care to keep the roots intact.
