Hi Folks,
Need yuor input. I have some C. Furcata and Red Temple that have struggled in my substrate (large-grain Flora-Max) as they arrived 3 weeks ago without any roots and uproot frequently.
If they were starting to grow some roots from a node I would trim the stem off below and replant. Lately they have started to grow. However, they are also continuing to grow roots from several nodes.

What is going on? What would you recommend I do?
-trim the roots?
-segment at the rooting nodes and replant?
- let them be? (I hate to disturb them as it's been so hard to get them started)
Thanks in advance,
AB
