How can I adjust this pilea? It was beautifully even but then I moved and it shocked. Can I chop the top or bottom off? Any ideas would be much appreciated appreciated!! Basically I want to do a reset on this plant

Honestly it doesn’t look bad to me. If you want to reset it, you can definitely chop the top and replant it as its own plant! New leaves will come out of the base of the mother plant. It will probably encourage more pups to grow too

Second this advice. I chopped \& propped mine a few weeks ago and both the top and bottom sections are doing really well. I’ve left the bottom of the stem in the original pot and there are already lots of tiny leaves growing from it; the top section is propagating in water and already has loads of lovely roots.
