double main...

Dear list,

It seems every year we have a few threads on the double main phenomenon...
Maybe I should pay more attention. Anyway, my 296-inch Holland plant
(845 Bobier X 940 Mombert) is a terrific plant, but has developed about one
foot of a "double main", which has now split into two "main" vines. I'm
definitely keeping this plant.

Should I clip one of the mains, leaving only one? When should I do this?

There is a picture of this on my site:

Please ignore the annoying pop-up ads.

Regards, Cliff
