Handling Spiderettes

some websites say prune, some say not! I got a spiderette and pruned it. got two back which I pruned, got four back which I pruned and got eight back, so I stopped pruning. I have now lost count. Should I prune or just enjoy the sight? Thank You

I've seen plants that were loaded with spiderettes. You don't have to remove them, unless you want to start new plants or share with others. If you want less, you can remove the whole runner, not just the spiderettes.
