Hello! I just need some advice and some second options. She is growing too fast and if I add another pole, it will be too top heavy and she doesn’t have a lot of bottom roots for a bigger pot. Should I chop and prop and if so where should I do it at ? Thank you! I just don’t wanna kill her she is my best grower.
Tough one. Cutting will always start a new growth point, but luckily the cuttings will need to form roots so it will slow those down.. up to u if u want to put them in the same pot to make it fuller or start a new plant(s). Even both depending how much u want to take. Ultimately it's up to u bc u can do it from any point. Just depends how quick it may grow back and how much u r willing to. Very healthy and pretty. Ig to make it short, the more u take, the more time u have.

If its usually up against that wall. You could also secure the pole to the wall via a little loop of twine between two hooks (not pressed to the wall)

I would def add an extension to it. Everything Wolfen said. Get some 3m hooks, the ones you can pull off and won’t damage walls and tie it to the hooks. I also do Wolfens second advice of using a heavier cover pot. I’ve got bubble wrap jammed into the spaces to keep it secure.
