# Hello! I repotted my FLF about a month ago and she’s been growing…

_Posted by Sarah on 2025-06-01_

Hello! I repotted my FLF about a month ago and she’s been growing like crazy. I’d really like her to branch, though. I’m having a hard time figuring out where to chop since the leaves are quite bunched together at the top. Any advice?

I'd cut about 2 or 3 leaf nodes above that bright green support clip. Don't worry if it's hard to get in with the cutter; fig is super forgiving and the worst thing that can happen is that it'll die back one node more than where you cut.
