I think leaving 6 inches or more is a good idea. I usually leave them on if they are in an area that I'm not worried about having a mess so that the humming birds can continue to feed on them, but I do cut them when they hang over my driveway. I think it does make the fruit just a little plumper when you remove the buds.
