Am I making the wrong choice removing the foam?

I am always shocked to find how big box stores sell their plants, this is the first time I have repotted a plant bought from IKEA. Upon starting to remove the foam that was hidden, I am realizing it is helping these tubes stand Tall! However I am not enjoying how some have grown THROUGH the foam! If i pick this all out will he still stand? #Dracaena

Hi! I say remove it! You can always repot it lower down in the pot to help support it and keep it upright.
@RealSimpleMama Thankyou for the speedy answer! definitely a little tricky getting them all straightened up as I was repotting ๐Ÿ˜… Harvested a nice group of pups that I am super excited to prop! Any advice for water vs soil?
@LoyalYellowrose they prop suuuuuuuper slowly - like, months - and Iโ€™d recommend soil over water. Slowest props Iโ€™ve ever done!
