My hand is where I chopped this FLF āBambinoā in November! Heās doubled in size since! Should I chop again to try to get branches or just be content with the long stick tree?

This is the original prop. It was only one leaf with no roots for like 3 months. Then it suddenly popped out a bunch and started pushing out a new leaf. It gave me another after I potted it in soil š IDK what Iām going to do with it but I donāt have the heart to give it away yet - probably one of the reasons I havenāt chopped the OG again š¤

KateI always thought chopping an FLF would cause it to branch at the top/apical bud. Is that not always the case?

ToPlantHarmonyI saw a video on ānotchingā the stem. I tried it last year but only did half the steps (youāre supposed to cover the top of the plant in a dark sheet/bag to encourage it to branch from the notch - I didnāt). But I noticed last week that now that the weather/light is better, my FLF has started growing branches out of 2 of the notches I made last year! So I can confirm it works. Maybe look up videos on YT to see if you find more info about it.

Oh! Thatās good to know! Did you have to use keiki paste too? I was reading that that could be an option as well. Itās very interesting to hear about the dark top. I havenāt heard of that before. Iāll definitely look up some videos. Thanks!

Iām not sure if they did in the video, but I definitely didnāt use any. Also just fyi when the notches on mine started branching, it stopped growing new leaves at the top. I guess it needs a lot of energy to branch.
