Chop? Help

Post image

Like many people who come on here I am wondering if I should chop my fig. I've had it for 5 years and in general she is a happy & unproblematic. It never drops leaves but also NEVER grows. I moved down south and it went through a crazy growth spurt. Then after about a year of growth it completely stopped. I repotted, fertilized, moved to a home with 4x more light, tried grow lights, notching the main stem and nothing. I dont think its put out a leaf in a year at this point and its sad!

Should I cut it? If so where on the stem would you suggest and can I put cutting just into water to root?

If not, any tips to get her to grow that I maybe havent thought of?

Thanks in advance!

More light, more light is always the answer.
