Re: Pup separation
Unless you want to propagate it, there is no reason to remove any suckers. It is stressful on the plants to remove them, and since you are not looking for fruit there is no gain in removing it for the health of the plant. It sounds like it is still in a container, and when separating pups out of a container I recommend doing it the spring so the plants have plenty of time to recover with their limited root systems.
