Pelargonium cuttings.

Hi
lve grown a few pelargoniums from cuttings and they are doing good, but they look to me to be a bit leggy. Should I cut back a little or will they thicken up??
ive included a photo to see what you think ??
many thanks Kevin.

    Yes you can cut them back and use the bits left for more cutting if you wish. They may need more light hence why they are leggy.

    Yes, give them as much daylight as possible (south-facing windowsill if you have one) and you can either nip out the growing point or cut back to just above  a leaf, which should make them put out side shoots from the leaf joints.
