  • If there is no plant to prune but there are good canes coming, be sure not to cut those good canes when you do the cleaning.
  • Never cut the irrigation lines.
  • When removing the canes, do not break too many canes. Remove the canes and put the canes in the middle of the rows so that they can be mulched; do not put them in large piles on one side.
  • Tie the canes up evenly, if there is a gap and there are no new plants, extend the canes to fill that area.
  • Arc the canes evenly do not break the canes when tying into the arch.
