Just cut them now and don't spray roundup. What is the plan to handle the stumps? I would spray the cut stump with Pathway (or TORDON RTU) to kill the roots, otherwise you will have tons of sprouts. You need to spray right after cutting the stump. Be careful to not get this in the water. If they are real close to the water I wouldn't do this.
