With the three new leaves coming in she's not topped 30 inches in height (measured from the top of the soil).
The pot on the right is where she used to sit and at this point, if she was still there, would be hitting the ceiling. That should tell you how high the ceiling is from the comparison of heights. Another 8-10 inches and I'll be lowering the pot again. Currently she sits on two boxes which can easily be removed one at a time.
If you've been following this at all you can probably tell I still haven't repotted anything. It's on my to do list.
That being said, the new saplings are doing pretty good. I have full confidence in about 24 of them and fairly sure 3 more will be ok. A total of 27 out of 40 survivors of this last planting. I a full grown tree can produce enough to make 2 pounds of chocolate a year that would be 54 pounds of chocolate or nearly 500 chocolate bars. Still a very small batch compared to most but that would be kind of awesome.
