Hippi seedling question

I've read that seedlings of some bulbs benefit from a light trimming back of the leaves during the growing season. The arguement is that this causes the bulbs to bulk up faster. The same article indicates that trimming back the roots when the seedlings are being potted up or transplanted has the effect of causing more extensive root growth.

Has anyone tried this with hippeastrum seedlings? I might experiment with some expendible/NOID seedlings...
