| If these canes are not wet/mushy, leave them alone. If a portion of the cane just goes shriveled dry, it can be cut down to the bottom of the dried cane, but not into live material. If the canes have wet/mushy sections, then you would cut into healthy tissue by about 1/2 to 1 inch. But if it is not wet mushy, there is no hurry to do anything. The plant looks fine to me, just dormant. Well Jerry says almost dry before watering, and I say completely dry. So something between the two, if you can split the difference is probably just fine too.
