I have height restrictions and my moms 3 foot tall. I had her trained into a arch and I over did it and went for the full circle (would have been cool) alas she snapped. Thats neither here nor there, I need to cut my girls down!!! I want to top her about a foot down but Im not sure if they can handle it. Anyone have any experience with this situation or an alternative idea?

yeh,not a problem,just keep it clean.You could also cut off the weak stems,and keep the strong healthy stems.
