Ok, so head some of the really long ones back. Point is, you want to keep new shoots coming as they are more apt to be productive.

Really? That would leave some pretty long branches. I'm afraid my potted trees will get too unwieldy to roll into the garage.

Thin branches - you want to encourage whole new shoots.

One more fig question.
In pruning the fig tree, would you recommend thinning
branches out, or heading tips of branches?
Thanks,
