It's been two years since I've grown AG's and the last year I grew was my first year. I have learned many things in the past week(s)on this website but a word I keep seeing would be pruning and I don't remember at all what that term means so if anybody could tell me what it is and how you do it (if you do it :) It would be greatly appreciated.


-Thanks

Are you talking about deadheading? if so, it means basically to chop the end of the vine off when it has reached the distance you want it at. Steve

Most people let the main vine and the secondaries grow, but cut off the tertiaries and don't let them grow at all. The lengths you let them grow depends on the size of your patch or the pruning method you're using (christmas tree, flag, etc...search for pics on this sight, i'm sure you'll find diagrams).
