Wondering about any recommendations for my rubber plant. She actually seems happy now, new growth coming in - but she’s sooooo spindly. Would you recommend I do a top cut or would that damn the rest of it? Wondering if there’s any way to get the stem my part to push out foliage? Thanks for any input - always learning. 🌱 🙏 P.S. this was watering day so just finished bottom watering, she sits under grow lights 12 hrs a day.
I scored mine and used some keiki cloning paste. It took a few months but lots of new leaves came in.
Thanks I’ve only ever used mine with orchids. I’ll give it a try!!

I 2nd this! Kekei paste for the win 🏆 it works really well, not just on orchids

I chopped the top and stripped all the leaves off mine 2 weeks ago. I wanted it to branch and give it a tree like look. Just water and care for it like it’s a beautiful full plant… lol till it actually turns into one.
Oh interesting! Haha thanks and good luck - would love to see pics as it grows from there
