My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Pinching vines OK?

20 years ago

Is it OK to pinch back morning glories and black-eyed susan vines? If so, how far back do you go, right to the first set of leaves?

I pinch back lots of other plants, but want to be sure that doing the same thing with vines won't stop them from growing.
