Creme de la Chem, Francesca

Finally starting to feel more committed and interactive than wait-and-see. She started pushing out her fifth node so I pounced and snipped her down to just above her third, racing those pistils. Took off two of her lowest three- fingered leaves, as they were big enough to be laying on the soil. She's still short as heck, but her stem is sturdy and beginning to bark slightly, with white adventitious roots developing at the base. She's actually stretched up a tiny bit, towering at just under 6 inches. Bud sites seem to be coming from everywhere, though. Gonna take out some of those leaves in the center tomorrow, the nodes coming up from the top can't even be seen. Also maybe some lower bits coming up. Waiting till tomorrow because I like to water/ feed after a cut but she could be a tad drier.
