Perhaps growth was stunted for some other reason? If you can reproduce that non-stretching phenotype and keep it, I would. Assuming it's of the quality expected from trainwreck of course. I'd also suggest being extra careful about limiting stress due to it's genetic makeup.
Vertical growth has likely slowed or nearly stopped but as long as it's alive it will still grow a little. The last 2-4 weeks is when they pack on the flower weight.

I'm getting ready to build a drain to waste setup in coco and from what I've read (and what I'll be doing) is using 2 gallon smart pots (ecopots, fabric pots). They supposedly will easily support a 3 to 4 footer and the smaller pot size will allow me to water more frequently giving fresher nutes and more oxygen to the roots.
I'm not sure the same would apply for a soil grow. Probably a bigger pot would be better to give the roots space to grow and expand.
In my DWC setup, the root balls were bigger than basketballs. more like a beach ball size for 3 to 4 foot plants.
