I have a number of potted peppers that I potted too deeply. I am debating whether it would be worth repotting them higher or if I should prune the bottom leaves and fill the rest of the pot up without disturbing the roots.
I am looking for opinions on this, and if I should prune the lowest leaves, do I need to worry about adding the medium too soon after I prune them? Can dirt in contact with cut stems cause harm?
I want the plants to have more root space but I am not sure it is worth the stress, they are doing plenty well at this point.
Thanks
