Pics of the trees this sat....I love growing trees indoors!!!

Is it possible to replant just the plant, not taking the plant and soil out of the pot? Like take the plant + soil out of the cup, and gently remove the soil?

Yes to some degree but you should handle very lightly to prevent stress. The plant will regain vigor in about 5 days. Try not to break off the roots and do this slowly...

Hey Doc you not taking email anymore?

Did you send me some???------I'll pm you my email brother...

That's a whole lot o' junk in that tree trunk. Nice...very nice!!

lol. Ya, those ladys got it were it counts !!!

nice job dr.v............. I'll be curious what the yield is and how much fluff you get from the bottoms and middle of the trees.
do you plann on cleaning out the center of the plant and pulling the lower nodes off, or are you just gunna let it run wild?

Anyhoo, it looks good! -I may have to turn my pops onto this tree method....you're using one 1000K per tree correct? Any supplemental side lighting? I'm guessing you had to veg those things under the 1000 k's and it took a few months?

-Thanks for sharing your grow and know Dr., much appreciated!

Jberry-
I have been thinking about just adding verticle 1000's hanging open for the side lighting. As you said if I flowered as is with the current lighting I would probley get alot of fluff on the lower and middle parts. I'm not to worried about the middle since the weight of the buds and staking will open the canopy like an outback blooming onion-lol. The containers have no drainage at this time so for the last couple weeks of flush I just plain on drilling holes in the bottom sides. I'm going to save one in veg and grow a christmas tree for this year. Probley a waste of power but I don't care... The indoor christmas tree has been on my--"things to do befor you die list". I'm going to try to get some of my patients to make and donate ornaments for decoration.

How does a product like Technaflora's Sugar Daddy affect final stages of bloom. Using 8 tsp per gallon for three days along with Magical 1/2 tsp and then 4 days of rinse. What else can be used to replace Sugar Daddy?

question for the doc im using a 3 gallon bucket with 1 1/2 water 1g nuits mixed botanacare organic base with gh additives im growing in a 9by3 space with a 6in inline exhaust 500cfm with a 6in inline duct fan 250cfm also 7 milk gallon containers with co2 mix (water,sugar, and yeast) im running to 400hps and only harvested an ounce per plant 1 or 2 gave me more but ive been maxing out at an ounce and also when i add my nuits i bring it down 5.6 and ceck it every other day the ph is lower when i check it on most of the plants am i doing something wrong just upgraded nuits to advanced hoping to c a difference but i want to make sure i was doing things right with my old nuits and growing tecnique b4 using advanced

I have clones that just rooted in grodan, so i placed in cups with ocean forest fox farm, i have them under a 150 HPS, some of the leaves are wilting a little, is this because the light is too strong, cheers

plants will wilt a little most of the time when you replant. How far away is the light? In most cases they snap back in a few days.

I have a bit of a situation that maybe you can help me with! I just finished week 3 in flowering and am starting week 4. Everything has done extremely well until 2 days ago when I sprayed with baking soda solution to rid the plants of a small amount of PM. 75% of my hairs turned red AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I dont know what to do??? Im hoping someone will tell me that these calyx's will survive and new hairs will emerge as they grow!??? I could shoot myself right now....PLEASE HAVE AN ANSWER!!

haven't seen the Doc in awhile. I got no clue what you should do. Never heard of spraying plants with baking soda solutoin. post if you get it figured out.

about a year ago I switched from my HID grow lights to induction grow lights for cost savings and would not go back as the canopy penetration and yields have been on par with my HID grows. What I just noticed the other day though is that I've not had an infestation of spider mites over the last year and my grow guy tells me it's because the mites like warm air. just what the HID used to provide the perfect environment for. thought I'd share that for anyone who may have the mite issues.
