Transplant from Ground to Pot When Just starting to flower

Outdoor Growing

I have 2 large plants growing outside in the ground. One is Granddaddy Purple the other is a Blueberry Kusch (I Think, it was a gift). The plants are about 6 - 7 ft tall and fairly bushy. I have a problem with the grow location to the point I may need to abort the mission… I was wondering if there would be an option to dig these up to put in a large pot and move them. They are just starting to flower and I know this would shock them but would it kill them? I guess in the end if I just have to get ride of them I might as well try to move them and if they make it great. They would still be outside just a bit more portable.

I guess I’m looking to see if any one else has done this with a fair amount of success? How did they do it and are there any fertilizers or such that could help? Thanks in Advanced!!

It is incredibly hard to take herb plants that have been growing in the ground and Transplant it into a pot/container, why? Well the root system is so extensive when it’s in the ground… roots grow EVERYWHERE…not in one spot like it does in a container, the more the roots Branch out into a very large area…and can go DEEP… if it’s something that you are just doing for fun go ahead and try it just dig a big hole around it and deep cuz if you mess up those main roots it’s all for NOT
