I saw your other post and just now this one. I've been looking into bonsai for a little bit now, so I'm glad I caught this post before it got too old.
How exactly does one "become" a bonsai and the other doesn't? Does that just mean you'll keep the bonsai in a smaller pot and give the other one bigger pots all its life? Do trees in bonsai pots get stunted growth or something or what prevents them from growing larger? I've seen images before of plants with roots breaking pots open so it seems like a pot doesn't necessarily limit growth? Although I think it must somewhat in most cases?
I can't keep any plants outside unsupervised or they most likely will get stolen. I saw the light you use and I would love one like that but cannot afford it. I have two of these, one is 50w and one is 20w. I have north west windows (so like, pretty awful). Do you think I would be able to keep a jade tree growing? I have a bunch of other succulents that I started this winter and they are all doing pretty well, including growing props, the only exception is my crassula moonglow has etiolated for some reason. I've moved it's position to see if it can get more light. I keep them in a window as well since I figure every little bit helps, but I don't count on that.
Anyway, what I'm trying to ask is do you think I have favorable conditions at all for a bonsai tree? I wanted jade specifically since it has water needs more aligned with succulents than other bonsai trees.
Thanks any help you can provide. Your jade looks really cute now and I look forward to updates on how it grows and what you do with it!
I have one of each of these, both have been running for about a year without issues.

The $100 one is extremely bright, worth spending a bit more if you have a large area.
ive got two planted + SE on my 24” high tank and i would say it is medium light at best. i have to supplement with flood lights to get it to the higher medium range.
edit: these are the floodlights i purchased and they are a pretty good deal.
I am using these on my planted aquarium: LED Light

You'd have to find a stand, but this style of light on Amazon tends to be really good for the price. I have a different one that's out of stock now, but I've dropped it more than a couple times onto concrete from about head height and it's still going strong.
If you want a flashlight, the Thunite T10 is pretty fantastic for the price.
Here is a 2 pack for $41. Here is the listing for the individual units.
Really, any 6500k bulb would work.
I have this one and hang it from the ceiling of my grow room.
Purchasing just the chip components can be a hassle as you need to buy a power supply, heatsink, and solder them. It can make for a fun DIY project though. I recommend pre-built COB lights like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F24HFDF/

You can save money by purchasing lights that aren't specifically marketed for plants. They work similarly, as all LEDs are full spectrum. Just pay attention to the K rating - 6500k is optimal for veg growth, and has more blue wavelengths. Personally, these are what I'm using. One light can grow multiple plants: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KFUZ1VC/
A 2-pack of 100W LED floodlights is $56 and combined will work just as well as a $100 grow light... (This is forbidden knowledge)

Masterblend is fine and can be subbed out for Maxibloom. They're both designed for maximum flowering, which cannabis and tomato growers love. They aren't geared for the veg stage of pepper growth, which is why I add 1/4 tsp of calcium nitrate and 1/8 tsp Epsom salts per gallon of solution. This covers the nutrients that Masterblend lacks, so your plants will definitely love you for it.

Good luck, fellow hydro grower!
