When is a tree at it's full height? While the tree is being developed, we are following the best trunk line upward, this way and that.... always the next new apex. At what point, if ever, do we say "this is the top" and just maintain the height. I have talked to some who say that the tree is never finished, that you always continue to go up with the trunk line. I have also read one opinion that states you must have some idea of how tall you want the tree to be when you start, so you can plan the first branch placement 2/3 up the trunk from the bottom.

I am anxious to hear what you all have to say on the subject.
