This is how I repair split vines on spaghetti squash-

I use floral tape, cutting a length that I know is too long if I'm working in small areas, or will use it straight from the roll if I have enough room.

This particular vine split when we moved it up the trellis. This is a two person job, one person has to hold the split together, as tightly as possible, and the other wraps the floral tape up the vine. The floral tape sticks to itself, and generally won't open easily. I always start just before the split and continue a little after it.

this is the second time I've taped this vine, and it seems to be doing well for it.
