My trellis is 12.5'. My hops are about 15'. Last year I tried the trick of lowering trellis ropes and letting them grow back up the ropes. I thought it was a huge mess. I've been convinced to not cut the tips so I have these huge plants looking for some place to go. I was thinking of grabbing the tips carefully pulling them down and "loop" them back to the trellis and let them grow back up.
My question is do any of you foresee problems I'm not thinking about? It still will be a mess but Im hoping it will be less of a mess?
