When the minis are tall enough to reach the top wire, we cut the leaves at the bottom of minis to concentrate nutrients on the top part. This helps the workers to pick minis easily because all the minis will grow on the top. The picture below shows the trimmed mini plant.

As you can see, we completely trim off everything
—even if we have fully grown cucumbers there. This is because we prefer organization and efficiency over meager plus in production.
