  if you are low on bines, go ahead and train both. but if you don't need both, i'd consider
  keeping only one of the two new shoots. let them grow 6 or 8 inches, pick the strongest one,
  and snip the oth...

  sweetcell, interesting! hops are such a cool plant.would it be fine then to just train those 2

  agitated from...

  Thanks for the responses. I'm planning on just keeping the keg undisturbed and picking a refill
  up Monday morning. Kind of unfortunate but im hoping the beer wont be too affected by a few
  days with so...

  So I just kegged a wheat IPA I've had sitting in primary for 4 weeks. I took it to my kegerator
