Hi all - I planted a Centennial this year from a rhizome and it went bonkers, growing 30' tall and currently growing about 200 hops cones. It had 2 bines originally going up the string, but some new ones started growing from the crown a month or so ago and there's now 4 or 5 new bines growing up the string- and the new bines are now some 7-8 feet tall with lots of leaves. The original 2 bines lost all their bottom leaves, and now the leaves of the new bines are growing more or less where the old bines no longer have any leaves. So, questions: 1) Do I leave the new bines alone? 2) If it happens again late in the season next year, do I trim the new bines? 3) is this going to affect the current batch of cones on the older bines? Thanks!
