New Grower green as grower

[Mañ'O'Green]

hi all I am wondering about giving these girl a little trim just to open them up a bit what do you guys think what is the best way to go about doing this.
any thought or opinions?.

I thought about mentioning this before but now I think it will make more sense; you should have filled the pots up closer to the top. It is hard to get light and air into the lower part of the plant in a tube like that. It also makes it hard to defoliate the lower part of the plant because you cannot see well in to it. Yes a little defoliation would be beneficial. Remember the idea is to get light and air through the plant.

totally agree manogreen I stuffed up on not filling the pots the whole way ran out of canna soil. will be making sure I go the whole way next time. hard to decide which leaves to take so much going on with these plant at the moment.
I might crack out the hand saw and cut the pots down. gave them a feed yesterday they seem to be stretching a bit more.

I would not do that; I think too much chance for root damage.
