Help with trimming

[BigQFan]

Hello all. I am somewhat satisfied with the growth I've been getting and it's time to trim some of my stem plants, they have reached the surface. It's some variation of bocapa(am I saying that right?). Anyway, my question is...when you cut a stem plant down, do you make the cut straight across the stem or at an angle? I thought I had read somewhere that angle encourages growth while straight across tells the plant not to make an effort with that stem anymore

Honestly it really doesn't matter. I have hundreds of stems in my 220g and I just cut and the plants grow just fine.
