Hi All - I'm wondering what is the best way to support the vine nearest the fruit.

Thanks - Ya'll Grow em BIG.

I've been using either blocks of styrofoam, or bungee cords. Wrap a piece of nylon strap around the vine to distribute the weight, then hook a bungee cord into the strap, and the other end to a stake.

i've been using self adhereing ace bandage,cut pieces to lenght,tied to stakes,the vine can be supported or tension applied to help move the vine gently.
