I would prune it up and top it. Make it spread out and get bushier, instead of letting it grow tall and lanky. You can also root the cuts you take off of it and make more plants

Yes yes yes! Lol like I had mentioned in the other thread my attempt to exodus people over here I had posted a link to this post in a post on shroomery and someone had replied there instead of following here and replying ahaha.. They had suggested the same thing and that's what we're doing!
Good call man!! I got my cuts sitting in water now, I did two with solution two without, just changed out the water for new water... idk if that's necessary but it felt like it helped haha. I actually tried to cut it at the lil knuckle parts near the baby thorns for the lankiness and the lowerbranches. IME that works really good at stunting plants into a different shape!

Ahhh meant to report back many days ago! The cloning experiment failed. The cuts given extra precautions of cleanliness and hormone lived slightly longer but still no roots. Not a detriment. The sapling took very well to the trimming done, it's taking more of a T tree shape now, by the time it's sunny out here again (soon) it'll be suuuper ready for it. I've had lots of good luck just starting the jurema beans doing the hot water method. I don't know why but my gut is telling me these things will put out plenty of seeds later on once its a real tree, so... IDK.. I'll keep reporting back!!
My next biggest hurdle with this is deciding what container path it will take. I suppose since the roots are the most valuable part I should probably make a lot of effort to keep it going through as many steps in size ... maybe... not sure...

Sorry to hear that. You'll probably have better success with cuttings when the weather warms up. Not sure if it's winter where you are or not, but I know it's freezing damn cold here! I'm ready for the sun, and warmth!
With all my very old big container plants, I don't keep up-sizing the pots, until they become impossible to move around. I root prune all mine every year or so, then return them to their original pot with fresh soil. I have been doing this with my lime tree and palms for over a decade now, and they are taller than I am! Root pruning doesn't faze them at all either.
Post an update of your baby when you get a chance

Thanks! It's not a Jurema though it's a Texas Ebony tree that I grew from seed back in 2009, but I'm sure you could do just the same with your plant. They are at least in the same family of plants and the look, grow similarly, hehe

Riight riight.. sayyy as an exotic plant enthusiast, do you know anything of Psychotria Colorata ?? it is known by many names. Sister plant to kratom and coffee. I was thinking about purchasing some either powder or the plants or both, not sure, still haven't convinced myself to take the money out of my pocket for it :P

Psychotria Colorata, no, but I used to have a Psychotria viridis plant, any similarities?
On a side note, before I moved from Tampa, I had a huge Jurema tree that I couldn't take with me, so I walked down the canal with it and planted it beside a big old palm tree. I wonder if it's till alive, and if so I bet it's a beast!
Just thought that I'd throw that in, not sure why though, haha!
You have inspired me to try and grow one of these magnificent plants again in the near future, thanks buddy

It is not related to Viridis. Gotta love all the name sharing in the science world right haha. I hope it's alive too, I hope I can keep this tree alive and as large as possible! I really want that special purple dye. Let me know if youd like to make a trade for some seeds i think I have a few left, whole bag has had great germ rate using the boiling water tek
