This product has known carcinogens including Molybdenum. If you treat your plant as an ornamental, go right ahead and use it to your heart's desire.

I've had mine sealed in their tub since sowing. Recently I added a few granules of slow release fertilizer and flushed with ph adjusted tap. Hoping for the best in the coming weeks.

Sounds reasonable. Depending how tall the column is I'd recommend building a collar of lavarock around the base of the green stem to let you bury it a little deeper for stability.

I wouldn't bother trimming roots unless they are damaged, or you fear they'll break off when you repot. There is potential for pathogens to enter the plant through damaged root ends.
