Showing off my chocolate soldier

So this guy was super etoliated and yellowing, and just not looking great. I chopped the top and tore off a bunch of lower leaves about a month or two ago. It's been living under brighter grow lights since and now I think it looks really neat!

Here's the transition from lanky to its current stats:

Oh nice I didn't know they branch like that! The props I started a year ago are just small centrally cone shaped little fellas.
