Okay all my plants are doing well as of yesterday i would like to start pruning so i dont trip like last time but how do i go about doing this i have never pruned a plant before i want to be able to see the stump and main vine with clear visibale side vines there are tons of leave stalks growing off the main and near the stump and lots of little tentical thingys those grabby things that choke leaves and try and grab you. So can i start pruning and can i prune the leaves away from the stump area so i can see it better how much pruning do you guys do and what effect does it have on the plant such as recover from pruning the leave stalks?? thanks to all that help me out

No Place Special

Just pinch off the third vines as they become visible. Bury the side vines with dirt after or as you prune off third vines. Dont wory to much about removing leaves right now. As the leaves age or look bad then cut them off around the stump area.

And pinch off the "little tentical thingys", they're a pain in the butt.
