Will this hurt my babies?

I tie a loose knot at the beginning of the node and slide it so it’s easier to apply. Is this a good technique or will it hurt my plants? I haven’t seen anyone post about this but if it’s a thing already let me know!

Probly better off just lobbing the top off with a sanitized razor tbh
