Laying the Vine in the Trench
Here the vine is being placed into the trench and held there before the soil is placed on top. I do this with my left hand and this is the hand that I also do not have a glove on because this is my detail task hand. This is the hand that I apply the rooting hormone with, pinch off tertiary vines and also flowers (depending if I have a pollination set or not), all tasks that require precision.
You can clearly see that the tendrils are kept intact and while some may break, I do not intentionally remove them as they help stabilize the vine and can act as a great early indicator of plant stress to allow for quick action to be taken before a problem is shown in the vine on a larger scale.
