# does anyone know if it’s okay to trim this pickle plant? I’m aware…

_Posted by bri :) on 2024-01-12_

does anyone know if it’s okay to trim this pickle plant? I’m aware that it’s reaching for light (i’ve been away at college and my sister hasn’t been keeping it in the windowsill, so i’m taking it with me this time), and i’ve recently repotted it. If it can be trimmed, will i be able to use the clipping to start another new plant?

Yes you can clip it and let the ends dry for a day and then dip in rooting powder and stick them back in the same pot to fill it out.
