Using the right techniques, yes and indeed, that will take many years.
Learn to control your eagerness to work on the tree. First learn how to take care for it and make it thrive.

Of course its a long term project and for life!

I'll leave it to grow for now. But i do have a suitable substrate for it but i'll leave repotting it until late fall or winter

Excellent plan (look up the right time for repotting. If I am right, that is early spring for JWP). Meanwhile, I'd like to recommend to get some native, deciduous trees to work on

If this pine was mine, what I might do is:
- Remove the flowers (the red balls under the new needles)
- Reduce the long shoots in the top branches (carefully, and do not fully remove them)

First study this though

I'm full steam ahead with writing down alot of information here I'm actually finding some knowledge on the internet contradicting lol

Best source i've found so far is Neil Ryan hes top notch!

I can decandle more towards late summer and decandle the whole tree so he was saying in his lecture!?

I do have a chinese elm but thats not native. I'm getting a grouped larch forest however at a bonsai show on 2nd june.

That is true. Trust no one, so also do not trust me

Yep. Have you seen the movie about Spring fundamentals? Two hours, but very worthwhile.

You did not learn the difference between white pines (single flush) and other pines, like black pines (multi-flush).
The above is totally wrong. NEVER decandle white pines. Candle pinching is done now, and not in late summer. There will be no second flush, so on JWP you will only pinch candles once. Decandling a JWP may kill it (or not, but it will seriously weaken it).

I thought I posted this article already? Just to be sure. I recommend you read this and understand the difference between which pines can be decandled and which can be pinched but must not be decandled.

You are right single flush for JWP. So seems like may-june is a good time to pinch the candles to redirect the energy. I will read on!

Cheers for the links
