lilithe1 - Welcome to ATP! I hope I can help answer your question(s) about your epi plant.
I grow epi's and I agree with Hetty's suggestion to just cut it at the break, let the end scab over and then you can plant that piece in potting medium to root and have a second plant!
Most epi's need to be pruned periodically to keep them from getting too leggy. Lighting also affects legginess.
Since I posted on this thread, if you have any further comments or questions, I will read and try to respond.
lilithe1 - Good luck with your upcoming move!
Thanks, Hetty for notifying me about this thread.
