Will most caudex forming succulents and euphorbia grow back from a hard prune?


I'm cleaning out my collection, isolating and quarantining to get rid of a pest problem. Will this fockea crispa and euphorbia knuthii come back if i trim them real good. Do i need to leave leaves on the f. crispa? Or can i cut somewhere in the first pic where there are none down there anymore, it spreads all over the place. Both have sufficient root systems and caudexs and my indoor lights are timed with the sun and we're coming up on fall light hours here in NJ. Thanks 🙏

    Both will grow back, you could probably chop the fockea down to the base of the vine and it will be fine. The knuthii will also grow back but more slowly
