*And this is all adjustable by the number of stems you're trying to feed. I believe AKMark is using a lot of 5gal pots and running one or two stem. This works conversely, a plant trimmed to 3 stems in a 15gal pot, will use less than an unpruned one. My point being, you can make the adjustment with the plant, or the container.
Thanks RS, that was exactly what I needed to know. I forgot to mention that I was going to try to prune to 3 stems.
