my blueberry bushes are doing strange things

hi all is it normal for a blueberry to have its main stem long and straight or does this signify it needs to be re-potted? it is in a 12" x 18"pot at mo the main stem is a good 15 inches taller than the rest of the plant

Could be the tip needs pinching out, much as you do flowers to encourage side shoots.

Will get different growth habit with varieties, there are these dwarf bushy ones, too, nowadays, but mine are more like a raspberry and should branch naturally, all pruning needed is to remove old shoots at ground level every 2-3 years.

Don't think you need pottong on at all.
