Never grown them before how tall do they grow and do you pinch out the sideshoots?

Yes and yes!

They romp all over the place if you don't pinch out. Tall plants too!

They're twice as vigorous as the most vigorous one you've grown.

And after this year, you'll grow em every year!

I agree to both, but am finding them harder to get started this year (Possibly too cold for them), Black Cherry is a good one for vigour as well, and you can save your own seed, Sungold is a F1 Hybrid.

I bought a sunbaby plant. How tall does it grow & am I right thinking I can take the side shoots to make new plants. Is it best inside or out.
