The new pup will not be stunted if you repot the whole clump; it is when
you divide up the clump, that subsequent pups are small again. and by
letting the number of plants in the clumb attain a large #, you will get
the biggest plants. i have a customer whose Bantel's Sensation is just a
bit over 40"...but he never separates the clump, just keeps puting it in a
bigger container. grows on a windowsilll in Oregon!
