Mine didn’t stretch to much I also grew it in a 1 gallon bag with short veg time so my example probably not the best gauge
Very stardawg in high very flo in taste wish I had taken a clone

That right there is something I’m prob going to have the opposite problem of, I can’t do any pruning without wanting to root the cuttings lol. I know I’m getting ahead of myself, but I have a feeling once I get going, I’m goin to end up with at least one bonsai mother of almost every strain I grow out. I’ll have to control myself and do some culling. Though as a wannabe future pollen chucker, variety is a tool box lol.

I have been down that route, they end up taking a lot of space and time up maintaining them. After losing most of my mom’s last year to mites, I think it’s safer to make some fem seeds from them as well, for back up and ease of growing, if you want to preserve the genetics. I found every 6 months I had to replace the mother with one of its clones as they ended up 3ft high with a few branches on top, like a palm tree

In my past grow years ago, I kept a mother for almost two years as a bonsai, I think I root pruned her two or three times. I plan on making some STS solution down the road anyway, so I’ll just save all the seeds too then lol.

The buns are in the oven. I can report that germ rate was 100 percent on these beans. Now we wait for the sprouts.

I read ReikoX having them in fabric pots, that way they were air prunned so you forgot about them, sounded me like a great idea … 
@ubcchemo Also luckily got them, will follow with great interest your progress, thanks for sharing …

The one I have are all being used by black and raspberries lol. I’m looking to get a couple 1-2 gal size to try. I’m doing bonsai mothers anyway, I use to keep them in 1/2 gal Tupperware style containers, wider vs deeper, not sure if that makes a difference. I’m going to get several 2gal ones anyway for my peppers that I’m going to grow as well lol.
