nope as it will only ooze faster, so just smash space button like your life depends on it,or just enable no oozing on cheats:P Basically this:
go to menu and click on cheats
and then turn on plant minigame prevent drip
thank you :)
Np:P Also if you need anything else just ask.
also if you want to do it without cheats, you can just smash spacebar, DO NOT roll, and you can't roll away from Mabel, we are forced to talk to her through that mission.
