Hey guys I’m in a predicament here. Should I cut her back on the hanging stems and prop? Or what’s the best way for it to climb? Give me ideas please  
It has great growth at the top that’s climbing but the bottom hanging stems are just giving runners and no fenestrations

I'd personally chop \& prop and leave the rest to work up the trellis... more plants the merrier 🌿

Thank you for your reply! I will chop \& prop🤭

my amydrium drove me insane for this very reason, just 3939393 runners and no leaves. figured id chop and prop and threw the bits into an old cleaned glass fishtank for better humidity and grow lights and they're happier now! they're so fickle.

I do have a fish tank I can put them in! Good idea! Thanks
