Default Fragging yellow fiji leather question

I aquired this Yellow Fiji leather over a year ago and though it is doing well it hasn't grown much beyond the size it was. Do you think if I frag it, the frag will sprout in a frenzie of growth? I was thinking of lopping the head off of it to see which side grows faster.

Default fraggind toadstool

I had a yellow toadstool that had a bacterial infection and ended up fragging the whole thing into 6 pieces but lost the stalk. They attached themselves in a week then developed their own stalks in the following week.

This is my experience with fragging leathers and I say they will grow fast. Lopping the head off is also a common way to do it as well, just make sure the frags get lots of flow during the first weeks to heal properly.
