You have two basic types of pup selection, one where you select the strongest pup and the other is where you select in a certain direction. When I select pups I usually leave the strongest pup, unless that pup is going to interfere with the bunch. Most of the time, my selections hold. However, I do occasionally have to go back at flowering and either remove the sucker or try to tie it out of the way. On my main farm, I am at the point where I generally have a steady stream of bunches, so I now select the sucker that is 180 degrees from where the bunch is hanging.
