    Hello,

    I would first like to introduce myself to this great Forum that i just found today. I am an avid hydroponics grower and i have been asked by a associate how would be the best way to transplant Sugar Maple seedlings and grow them out for commercial nursery market.

    these are the main questions i have:

    1) spacing for maple trees
    2) any fertilizer issues
    3) pruning and /or what size the saplings should be ideally be for transplanting (girth/height)

    and If I get an understanding on the size of the saplings and the spacing I can start marking them for the fall.

    all help and advice is greatly appreciated,

    thank you,

    -Aleks
