5 - Q : How can I repair my hedge? Should I cut the cedars lower down to strengthen the bottom?

You have no choice but to cut the hedge off below the tears in the trunks. Make the cut at an angle near a branch in good condition. Unfortunately, it will take a long time for the hedge to recover from this damage. Be careful not to cut into old wood, i.e., where the brown leaves are, because this will not produce new growth.
