Pro-Tips: Hops Growing #299

Did you know that hop vines have to wrap themselves CLOCKWISE around the rope/string/whatever that they grow up? If one did not know this and one was going to begin growing their own hops and go through the effort of building their string trellis support system and wrap the young hop vines around the support string any old way (meaning some CLOCKWISE, some COUNTER-CLOCKWISE) one might be surprised to find that some of the hop vines grew fine up the rope and some of them got pissed off and had to unwind themselves.  One might be confused until one realized that the vines that were initially wrapped COUNTER-CLOCKWISE were the ones that were having to unscrew themselves, literally.  So young Hop Barons, take this lil pro-tip to bed with you and when your young hop vines begin reaching for their ropes to grow up, you wanna wrap them CLOCKWISE around that rope.
