Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Chalice Vine questions, 1 by picabo

My Chalice Vine has grown so large in the green house this winter. It must be 25 or 30 feet and is going to be a job to get outside. It hasn't bloomed this winter and I am wondering if it is because it is so humid in there and it stays too damp.
Now the real question. Can I cut it back and expect to get blooms this year on the original plant or will cutting it back eliminate or reduce the chances of flowers this year.
This was a new cutting for me last spring and it was only about 4 foot tall when I moved it in for the winter so all of this is new growth. Not too many new branches just this one long vine growing everywhere.
