Your doing great!!!!!


But I do have to ask...why are you cutting that plant?
I didn’t realize when I originally replied to this message that I missed a question you asked. I ended up cutting it at least twice because I stupidly thought it would cause the plant to start growing faster. You know it pretty much was just doing nothing. I wanted it to start growing the pseudostem faster. Oh well. Didn’t work out that way, did it! Hey, at least it’s still alive though! Plus I wanted to mention that I did end up getting a machete by the way! I got to admit that it’s so much fun to use! Makes trimming so much easier!
