If I had 5 gallon pots but only 3gal. Dirt. The whole veg. Then Added the remaining 2 gallon dirt at beginning of flower would the stalk that gets coverd turn into root and help them. Any words of wisdom are appreciated.

Not a good idea to cover the main stem once flowering has started. It will spend time from flowering to grow more roots reducing yield.:bigjoint::peace:

yeah, top dressing isn't the best plan, roots grow downwards naturally. the stem will grow roots if you bury it, but it will take a lot more of the plants resources than repotting in more soil and letting the roots do what they naturally want to do
