Nurseries sell them like that because they can charge higher prices. Poorly informed consumers pick the larger plants thinking they will grow better. It's also easier for retailers to keep them wet very few of them have watering systems setup for them.
You can read my other comment, but that's simply not true ๐คฃ
Was a grower for years, and they sell them like that because there's less chance of issues during transplanting. Hearty plants, less transplant problems, happier customers.
I did respond to your other comment. Sorry bud, basic plant physiology and thousands of hectares of commercial production disagrees with everything you wrote.
