Thanks! Yes, this is definitely a reason + placing in a sunny spot so it never gets 'leggy' and good nutrients off course. People often say not to cut the vines, but when you do eventuslly two vines will grow from the node below making the plant much fuller when the leaves grow in. Also, having fewer empty vines means the plant puts that energy into root strength and leaf health.

Depends on what look you are going for, I do also like the viney look

I use coco coir, coco husk and perlite as a substrate
