You make a good point, thanks. Sorry I was unaware of your replies till now.
I did actually do that wiring btw, but I feel my wire wasn't strong enough.
I even did double wiring of my thickest, but unsure whether its made a large difference or has stayed in that position.
You make a good point. It would seem wasteful to put in ground, but I am just thinking of the thickness that the leader has to put on, can only imagine it taking a few years.
Perhaps bigger pot, again, as you suggested when you saw it.
Maybe next year, bigger pot, 2-3 years in that pot to stretch its legs, get some proper girth on.
Sound like a plan?
you want the branches going up n out towards the light. branch tips facing up to the light. maybe you didnt use thick enough wire and it needs to be done again. yeh a training pot should be fine, sort of like the ones i have most of my trees in.
