Welcome Andrew to Dave's and the brug Forum.

I think you may really have a datura seedling there. If so, they will bloom very soon. And depending on which they are, you may have some pretty spectacular blooms. I have only grown daturas a few times, so I will not give you any advice on them.

On brugs, it is best not to pinch them back if you want them to bloom at their earliest. Brug seedling can grow to 6 ft before they form a Y and then grow flowering wood. So each time you pinch it back, you prolong the Y from being made.

I just went out to look at a 4 inch datura. It also Ys and flowers from the Y. Luckily, it Ys very short. LOL. This plant is about 5 inches tall in a 4 inch pot and has 2 buds.
