My beautiful baby has been growing for the past 2 years thanks to this wonderful group! I'm worried about how much she is leaning towards the window, and I'm worried that she'll eventually topple over and fall or even break. Can anyone suggest where I can cut to propogate her? It does look like it is all one main stem so I am scared to hurt her.
if you just try flipping your support system to the opposite side and find some twine or plant velcro works best, tie it back against the support where the petiole sits on the support instead of in front of it :) it should pick up just fine and you won’t have to change anything else!

That makes sense I will try that! What about the rest of it that is reaching out towards the window? Its curled and is about 3 feet long now. I worry if I try to pull it that it would break
1 like i would suggest tying/velcroing where the arrows are pointed in the photo, the circles are where your growth nodes are. if you change where the coco pole is like previous comment it should start depending on that support system and straighten itself out with the right light. if your leaves are curled and bent that far it may need more light, so if possible maybe try moving it a bit closer to your window or one that has a bit more sunshine throughout the day. it will never hurt to add a grow light as well. after all of this if you still believe propagation is the best way to go, you should just be able to cut right underneath the first circle, to make sure you have a growth node to put into water or soil. best wishes!!! i hope this helps!!
