After regretting not buying the last pot of Jades I'd passed up, I couldn't let this one go so it came home with me. There are several small cuttings stuffed into one cup (4.5"). Most of the cuttings are about 4" tall, give or take. I know it's a young plant and definitely needs time to mature and yet I can't help but wonder if I can start molding it now.

Aside from the obvious of putting it where it'll get an endless amount of bright light and repotting it in gritty mix, should I repot it into a larger pot? When should I start worrying about pruning, if at all? Ultimately, I'd like a jade with thick, woody stems and a fuller appearance. My gut tells me these cuttings are far too young and small to do much with now and I really don't want to toast this plant before it's had a chance to shine.
