The wind often keeps blowing them over once they are out of the grow tubes. You will need the trellis in place, wires up and the bamboo attached to the wire. Then the vines can be secured to the stakes and they don't blow over any more. Generally the recommendation for pruning is to prune back to about 3 buds in the spring. The vines then grow back nice and strong and will give you a thicker trunk. If you leave the thin trunk there from this years growth, the buds grow from it and the new growth can be two to three times as thick as the trunk. Sometimes folks leave the old growth their for next year and sometimes it works out alright, but not always. It will be your choice.
