Tried to grow some spruce trees from saplings and I never got matchstick or lollipop variants. This is inconsistent with oak trees - you can grow large and baloon oak from saplings.

I would try to get a bigger sample size for spruce trees and see if the problem is continuing to happen. (Edit) I would also try to see if "Matchstick" and "Lollipop" trees can spawn with saplings in taigas as that is probably the problem.
@unknown, that would be good. It would be a great addition to builders and also more biomes(old taigas being renamed to spruce taigas, pine taigas and taigas being the ones with spruces and pines).
@unknown, that is not the point of this bug. The point is, these 2 variants of SMALL spruce trees are impossible to grow from saplings.
Can this ticket be renamed to refer to these trees as "pine trees", since this is what they are referred to in their json files, as well as what their tall 2x2 versions are referred to (see old growth pine taiga vs old growth spruce taiga)?
Honestly I think it'd be best if these variants were renamed to pine trees and given their own specific sapling and wood type.
