One of the stalks of my fiddle leaf got cracked during my recent move but not all the way through. I staked it up but I think I should probably cut it off. I'm sure all the plant's energy is going to try to correct that spot. It was a couple weeks ago and the leaves above the crack are limp. So do I just cut off below the crack, any specific way, or is there somewhere else I should be cutting?? Thanks for you input

Just below the broken place would be best for now. After it heals see what that does for the form and shape of your plant and maybe trim more if desired. Lucky you. I want a fiddle leaf fig. They are awesome looking plants.
