I have some space, but not enough space to let all of the squash and cukes that I planted to sprawl. I think I have 12 squash plants in the ground, 6 varieties/two plants each. Ideally I'd like to ensure that I get some production from each variety, and although I have some room to allow some sprawling I'm curious about the rules/method to follow for pruning squash plants, i.e. could I limit each plant to two main vines and allow branch and squash growth on those two and remove any suckers/additional vines without sacrificing photosynthesis of the main vines?
