I was looking through my photo gallery this morning and when I saw this photo it reminded me of this thread.
The mother plant (Gen 1) is not in the photo but it's clear where it was connected to the large sword pup (Gen 2) and the 2 smaller pups are Gen 3.

Letting the Gen 1 Plant power the Gen 2 Plant works great as you stated.
This method allows me to remove the Gen 2 Plant and power the Gen 3 Pups from the Gen 1 Plant.
It was a useless technique when I posted about it 11 years ago but it later began very useful when I started growing variegated Pisang Awak.
The partition is a temporary raised bed around the target pup to raise it's growing point so the nicely variegated pup can be successfully removed while leaving behind most of it's rhizome for propagation.
The final result will be a Gen 1 Plant powering Gen 3 Pups via a Gen 2 Rhizome.
