I was pinning my philodendron up to the wall and snapped the end of the vine off in the process🥲 Will this vine continue to grow longer ?? It was growing so long I was excited to get it going over my doorway.

the vine will carry on as long as it’s getting light and water — no worries!

Cutting the end off will actually send a signal to the plant to grow more, so this may actually help the vine grow longer ironically
