Hey Kinzu lovers, I have a question with regard to developing seedlings. I have two "problems". First I had more seeds than peat pots so so I double planted most of the cells. Almost all have grown, so many of the cells have two seedlings. The second issue is, Kinzu seem to throw multiple stems from one seed so I have some that are double or triple trunk.
The question is, should I prune out the multiples and have single trunks/seedlings in each cell or leave them be? What would be more desirable to someone training for bonsai later?

Yeah more trunks I think, but then I'm a clumper...

FWIW... I just three nice 3qt. Kinzu from Nurseries Caroliniana. Anyone looking for the species... they've got them.

That's where I got mine as well. Just think, all of those fruits have 3 or more viable seeds!

@milehigh_7 Any updates on these? Just curious... I know a few people looking for some.
Looks like he hasn't been around here for a year.

He's on my friend list at Facebook...but...I don't go there. I need to think of his name. See if I can send him a messenger message. Thanks Carol. Never thought to see if he's posted in awhile.Looks like he hasn't been around here for a year.
