Question about my prop I've been growing for a few months. Could I technically cut off the larger stem and repropegate it?
This is a watermelon Snow so I think I'm worried about it being a waste or if it's helping the others grow as they don't have a lot of chlorophyll.
Second question. Is this a few babies growing or just one? It looks a bit funky for just one and until I unpot it looks like they are attached to one main stem when I shift the substrate a bit.

Looks like a few different babies, and yes you technically could cut off the stem. However, there’s not enough green on the babies so there’s a chance they’ll die if you cut it now.
Yes you can, but wait until you’re removing the babies and potting them up.
Also, I’d use a lighter, looser media. Violet roots and very fine and the baby’s leaves are small and tender, they aren’t very strong for pushing up through hard, heavy media.
What pot is that?
Mine always dried up before then, but worth a try after the babies are big enough. If it starts to dry starting from the stem to the tip, you can cut the healthy half of the leaf and prop again.
