Consider working with more mature trees too. GRowing from seed it fun but also a looong proces!

If you have space to grow them outdoors, junipers, black pines, maples and azaleas are all classics for bonsai.
Try to purchase from well known and reliable sources, mostly bonsai nurseries.
Don't buy from big garden centres, Wall Marts and shopping malls. They sell mallsai and those plants are not bonsai at all.

Thank you so much for your help.
I do have outdoor but yesterday was assessing the amount of time that i have sun in there and there was sun in just a bit of the backyard for 1h in the afternoon
The hit the facade for all morning and afternoon but is in front of the house (things can be stolen)
Do you know any species that wouldnt mind not having much sun?!

Hello everyone.
sorry to keep seeking reassurance. I have followed the advice of increasing the pot, this one was what I already have after having to do a urgent transplant, and putting her outside.
She is now 4 months old and her shoots are very long. Since last week 7 new shoots almost fully extended.
My guess is too let her grow and eventually move to a bigger pot but I have the remainder doubt of if I should prune and contain growth size since she can get pretty big. I cannot find a proper guide on what to do from seed. everything I find is for already grown wisteria or recovering ones.
I do have a piece of flowerbed in fron to f the house where I could put her in (inside of a pot) (see photo). You think that could be a good idea?
I would appreciate your guidance.
thank you very much in advance
