hi, after planting this, (E.acicularis) i still have about 1-2cm of a clump sticking up out of the substrate. how dco i remove this. there are new shoots all around each clump. but it looks ugly. i have cut it as low as i can to the substrate but how do you guys achieve it?

i am thinking about doing an iwugumi with just acicularis but i dont want it to look horrible with the dying clumps there that have had their heads chopped off.

can i just remove the clumps and the new shoots will keep growing?
 
I'd leave the clumps in place, as you might get some more shoots off of them. I'd only take them out when the rest of the coverage is pretty dense.

I don't have much experience with hairgrass but have found that if I cut a leave short that it will then die off within a few weeks.
