My hop garden is doing really well this year. I have three plants that have reached the roof already but I'm a bit worried about what I do with them now. Here in Kamloops, BC it gets really hot from now until September, and I am worried about whether the hops might burn the tips being at the roof with asphalt shingles which get really hot during the sunny daytime.
Should I:
- train the tips to grow back down the twine?
- just leave them and let them do what they want?
- trim them to stop more growth? (Prob not good)
- anything else?

Please let me know what others do in this situation.
