Well I can't let it grow to 20 feet. I don't want to have to climb a ladder to get at the top, and I certainly don't have any supports that tall. I'm topping it at 8 feet, a little over a foot over the top of the support. They're already pretty tall.

Cutting off the growing tips will reduce harvest, but if you're ok with that then it's your decision.

I suggested you lower the plant and remove all unnecessary leaves. But, it's your garden to do with as you wish.

Edit: PS, don't allow any part of the plant to actually touch the dirt; neither leaves nor fruit nor stem.
