I have this Dubia here that I have been considering cutting back . I let it go a little longer than I should have with an extension . My questions are is this normal ? Will the leaves fill in or did I mess it up by waiting to extend ? I was also considering a small clip either way since it’s already past the top of the pole \& I don’t think I want it any taller than it is . Thanks!
