The best thing to do is to prepare very large holes, this may determine the plant's growth more than anything else. Dense soil where a plant can't easily root out will stunt growth. Mix in peat moss , composted manure and/or a dry organic nutrient like Espoma Plant-Tone.

There should be plenty of nitrogen (the main nutrient in the veg cycle formulas) in the freshly prepared soil. Mulch around the plants with cut litter from the area to keep moisture in and other weeds out.
