Hi Doug:
Several of us have tried and have seen no difference. Maybe someone else has had success trimming.

Once I get a fruit set I will stop all new growth that is almost touching the ground from the trellis. I try to keep an approximate area size and prune for the plant to turn its energy to just fruit growth. Similar to giving a set area space for a pumpkin. After saying that my pb is just 110" so I am not a lg heavy hitter. John
