Here's a plant that I didn't trim any bottom growth. The growth at bottom eventually pushes outward. The top growth never stopped growing wider and taller either. Excuse the pics of a bhut (sorry no scorpions this year). Not sure if this is good horticulture practice or not. For me the plant didn't need staking during our winds.
Top of canopy. Can you make out its container?
My Trini Scorpion (the only on that survived). a true fighter! 
t.scorp.update
two weeks in the bucket and doin good.growing in MG potting mix,aprox.1 ft. tall and starting to bush out.did clip lower leaves after photo.
Trini.#2,same 2 weeks in bucket,had to clip top at transplant because of wind damage.I think it helped to make it more bushy than Trini. #1.aprox. 8 in. tall,i keep forgetting the measuring stick.

wow what a green !!!
Quick update:
Trini plant is third from the left (or second from right):
The plant is full of flower buds, and the first three are bigger than any other Chinense I've grown. About two inches long. Leaves are also getting at around 6-8 inches in diameter.

Dang,now the secrets Recipe is out 1part coke 2 part sprite zero!!I ran out of soil and on windy days the dam plant was swaying side to side lol,so i threw two soda cans in there to make a ghetto brace to stop the plant from moving till the roots can hold it in place!
