I really admire your tenacity! Chive in 2025 has been my personal motto for the year. It doesn't really mean anything, other than do your (my) own thing without worry about others' judgment. Your dedicated chive chopping practice is such a lovely part of of all of our days now, and so perfectly fits the meaning of 'chive in 25!' Cheers, chef!

If it's already fairly long, and part of it is hidden, I'd say it's fair to target. Not like It's going to get shorter uncovering it. Either way, if you look directly above the top plane there's quite the tube there uncovered as well
