Hi, Phillip,
Do you mean cut the stalks off? If you separate the stalks from the root, the plants will stop growing. If the sprouts are large enough (even pea size), you could eat them after cutting.
Sprouts are cool weather crops and would do better if begun in the late summer early fall, and continued through winter. They can take a frost, even a snow, if that's the weather where you are. So you could try again later in the year.
