How do you terminate secondaries? Do you just bury the ends, or cut them off, or something else?

Cut with a sharp knife just after a leaf node if I have my knife handy. In a pinch a shovle works fine. Some growers dust the cut with fungicide or sulfur. Either way, it is a good idea to let the cut air dry for a day or two before burying.

Myself I dont have any type of sulphur fungicide to cover
up the open fresh cuts, I find as long as i cut it clean by around Noon with the hot sun rays it helps to harden the cut up by nightfall then a day or 2 later I burry them
