Anyone have this problem? It looks like the leaves tend to all grow on one side of the vine and the weight causes it to flip. I have about 2 or 3 like this. Any suggestions how to fix it?

hey sam.. ive noticed this on my plants before. usually though, it was from the vine being blown over and not tended to. the leaves are kind of bent and then grow in the direction they were flipped over onto

Are you burying the vines?

Wind is usually what causes the vines to flip/spin. If you bury the vines this will eliminate most of the problem. Once the vine has spun and the leaves curl around the vine it seems to be impossible to get them back to the way they were. It seems to only take minutes, if in the daylight, for the leaves to twist around the vine once it has spun.
