I've noticed the new growth on my main vine is turned downwards. The end grows up in the air, but the very tip is pointing towards the dirt. Secondary vines are not doing this, just the main.

Any ideas? Is this a problem, and if so how do I fix it?

Pretty sure that's normal .. If they are all pointing up, normal also..if they really flying high probably because nitrogen levels are up there ...someone will correct me if I'm wrong...

Thanks guys! One less thing to worry about. I'm sure I'll find something to replace it with soon enough.

the vine tips (all of them) should point be a few inches off of the ground with the last 4 or 5 inches drooping straight down)

Here is a good picture.
