# So I’ve just learned this is because it wasn’t getting enough light…

So I’ve just learned this is because it wasn’t getting enough light in my window. So I’m acclimating it to being outside. I want to chop and prop so it can grow more upright. Where on the stems should I cut? Thanks!

If you want it upright you don’t need to cut it off you need to get a stick and try to wrap it around the stick.
