# Morning! My pinky plant that was dying has been repotted. I have it…

_Posted by Lesli on 2026-03-22_

Morning! My pinky plant that was dying has been repotted. I have it under a grow light for about a month . I have been noticing that part of the plant is shooting up and today I noticed lil flowers. The bottom part is doing well. Should I trim the flowers off or just let it keep doing what it is doing???

Mine did that too!!! I left it bc the flowers don’t last long. Didn’t seem to hurt the plant at all

The flowers do take up most of the plants energy, so if you want it to continue growing at a decent speed it’s been noted to cut them! But you definitely don’t have to

Still not understanding why it is shooting up. I have it under a grow light.

Mine are growing like this too. Not sure why, apparently trimming it can make it seem fuller and less tall.
