First let's clean our tools with the alcohol, we will be cutting into the trunk of the brug and we don't want to cross contaminate the plant from what we cut before with the tools. Just pour some out on the tools where we cut. You should do this for every brug you cut into. A good time to put on the gloves. Let's make our first cut! I like to cut as close to the ground as I can, don't be afraid, it won't hurt me a bit! Hold the branch with one hand and cut with the other, that way it doesn't fall and strip the side of the bark. Make a clean cut all the way through. Here is a picture of a fresh cut.
