So ive got this cutting (not air layer) of a Benjamina that i am just absolutely sick of looking at. I keep my tropicals indoors about 80F with plenty of humidity. This cutting was taken about 10 months ago and thrown right into this little plastic training pot. I left one leave on the cutting and have pruned slightly a month before the pics. Nice little mame piece but the branching is just terrible to look at. Probably should have just chopped it where I wanted when I first took the cutting...
Anyways I wanna chop it about half way up the trunk. It should back bud nicely I would think seeing how I provide a suitable atmosphere for tropicals. Here where in Missouri it’s usually best to wait till hottest part of the summer for major work on tropicals. Butttt like I said, this ugly little guy needs a makeover ASAP in my opinion. What do you guys think, chop now or wait???
