I have a pollinated female out 13ft on the main, with the
next female at 17ft out---these appear to be my best/only
choices on the main. Once I pollinate the 2nd female, should I then trim off all other males and females? And
how big should I let the two grow before I cull one? Basketball size?

I would not trim all the males and females yet....sometimes things change with a freak storm, wabbit, or visiting elk..... so you want to keep some options open. PLAN C , and D. If something happens you might have to set one on a side if you want the genetic seeds from that plant or just to have something to take to a weigh off.....

I pollinate everything. Once you get a good set going the pollinations further down the line usually shrivel up letting you know you have a keeper.
