I read that you want to dig them up after the season and cut the roots back.

I read those fucters will grow under your house if you aren't careful, and that you want to place them a bit away from structures ...
 
There's a book or such on growing them from years ago that recommends which sun-facing wall etc, and some structures to fasten to you soffit or whatever ...
 
The blog post I recall was a guy w/ a Ditch Witch in his backyard trying to cut through the roots that extended under his patio ...
 
Well, they grow about 25' feet long and can weigh 20+lbs. so i think it would fall over. Although, I guess I could put them next to the rope I would set up and train them on there.

Lol wow. Hard part for me would be to get them in the sun but keep them away from any structures.
