# Should i cute the top off my ficus? I have this ficas that went crazy…

Should i cute the top off my ficus? I have this ficas that went crazy last summer and went a bit wobbly! this last few weeks it’s put out a ton of new growth on the sad sticky bits! but it’s still a bit crazy should i chop off that left bit to propagate or let it do its thing??

Don’t chop the new growth. You can prune the stick that is pop sided a bit to the height you want it to be.

Can you give it more light? And maybe rotate it a quarter turn when you water.
