a little under and not tall
Look closely at your first picture. You are under, but not by much. It looks worse because you did not have a tall plant. If your top arm were vertical, as it should be, then part of your plant would have been corrected. Secondly, as you did take off your bottom arm collapsed immediately, as stated ...
