Ali, I'll take some closer photos of the other streps so you can see. some are at least 2". All my research says that the method I used for cutting vs. cutting into wedges (?) was for 'experienced' propagators, but I thought I'd at least give it a try.

I have the room in that tray to put a few more leaves of streps down but just wasn't sure how many leaves it needed to survive if I take a leaf off.
Here's a photo of what I was thinking. So that I at least left some for photosynthesis. But if I do this, will the section left on wither?
thanks!
