I know a large part of the reason it took me a long time to try the method is because I wanted to understand it a bit first. It can get messy when you replant and uproot plants. Topping stems is the best way to go if they can handle it; most can.
For me, the little extra mess it makes when I'm rescaping and such is totally worth it and it clears up by the next day. I love that I can become busy and forget about my tanks for days and not have to worry about them having gone to heck because I wasn't dosing. I can also go on vacation and leave instructions on how to feed the fish and that's it.
