Alrighty folks here is my rather strange question. In my WIP I need to kill off an orange tree. (Toldja it was weird) The MC digs up the orange tree and takes it to another location, planning on re-planting it. I need the tree to be dead/dying before it gets re-planted. So if the MC, when digging it up, accidentally cut off a large chunk of the roots, could that kill the plant? How fast? And if it wouldn't then what are some other accidental ways to kill a plant when moving it?
Thanks in advance for any help!
