Can anyone share advice of how to prune it and propagate a new plant? ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/TXE_m_21KCcnllfRWc7gkYH248z3g6XPAYu9AbnSwJc/62_WWl05QPu0nSjXgAVplw.webp?size=large) ## 17件のコメント ### Autumnさんが2025-01-17にコメントしました dang. 👀 no clue, but do you have any tips for how to make my future fiddle leaf fig as happy as yours? he looks so happy!! #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました Thanks! It’s a north facing window I guess! #### Autumnさんが2025-01-18に返信しました cool, thx! ### Genaさんが2025-01-17にコメントしました Chop and prop! #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました That just seems so brutal. 🥹 #### Genaさんが2025-01-20に返信しました It does but I would only take off the top section that’s getting too tall and then you have a baby one too! ### Mr Variegatedさんが2025-01-17にコメントしました Just cut to the height you want. Then take the cuttings and take the bottom 2 leaves off and stick it in water. #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました Thanks for your comment. #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-21に返信しました Does it matter what season it is? Should I wait until Spring? #### Mr Variegatedさんが2025-01-21に返信しました Me, I chop anytime. But most will wait till beginning of March, even the end, when the growing season starts. If I’m going to root the cuttings, I’ll do it now so it’s rooted by spring. But that’s my opinion. Everyone does what works for them. Depending where you live and climate too. I’m in Toronto Canada where nothing should be done in the winter. It’s cold and dry. ### Max Grzelakさんが2025-01-17にコメントしました Look up happyhappyhouseplant on Instagram. Tons of videos, guides and advice for trimming fiddle leaf figs #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました Will do! ### kyさんが2025-01-17にコメントしました Gorgeous 🤩 ### Debさんが2025-01-18にコメントしました Last summer I chopped my 6 foot FLF in half. I took about a 2 foot piece from the top and put it in water in front of a south facing window. All of the leaves turned brown and dropped off but eventually it started growing roots and small leaves appeared. Be patient. The roots took over 3 months to grow. I just kept changing the water. Now it looks like this. ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/hLu6O83gnxdA3O760H5NVu_53xg8EbBsclrOU1RnnZM/VO0L_jxfSHOM83ZczlRBuA.webp?size=large) #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました Wonderful! ### Jessさんが2025-01-18にコメントしました Hiii!! I follow houseplusplant on IG and she has amazing advice on how to prop. What she does is cut where you desire, remove the lower leaves, then stick the cutting in a clear plastic grow pot filled with perlite. Then set in a shallow dish of water for self watering and watch as the cutting grows roots and new leaves! #### Valhallaさんが2025-01-18に返信しました Thanks for the advice! --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
