How much can I cut on this very tall lucky bamboo?

I'm looking to reduce the height (~6 ft from the soil) of this lucky bamboo, and propagate the cuttings. How much can I cut without traumatizing it? #luckybamboo #propagationstation
15ft to light, indirect
9” pot with drainage
Last watered 3 days ago
Yikes... If it was my plant I would cut it just below where it gets thin, so the bottom part stays bushy. Then remove some of the bottom leaves from the trimmed of part and place in a #PropagationStation... And then patiently look for roots to grow... But it's up to you. This is a big decision!! Good luck!! πŸͺ΄πŸœπŸŒ»πŸŒΏπŸŒ΅β¦
I have a water lucky bamboo about the same height- can I plant in soil for stronger growth?
I actually propagated mine when they were dying. But there in water and shot out roots and if you put them in soil you probably have a higher chance that they'll die.
