I cut them down. I think it was the right call, as the secondary growth is already 6ft tall. Thanks for your guidance.

Thanks for that! I'm going to prune the largest and leave the smaller ones and roll with that. Most are already to the top of the trellis! We'll see what happens.

Thanks! I'm in Colorado, fyi.

I've never properly trained or pruned them, embarrassingly enough. Never had the trellis for it. It's hard to think about cutting down a bind that's already 10 ft tall oh, but you think it's still the way to go to get the best harvest?

My hops (in their 6th year) are going bonkers, growing about 9 inches per day. They're almost to the top of my ten foot trellis. But I just learned about bull shoots, and I'm fairly certain most of my bines are bulls. Should I chop them all to the ground and let the secondary growth come in...
