We all know that there are several types of plants who will climb and grow over just about anything. One such vegetable are cucumbers but the results of this thread would be equally beneficial for any of the other climbing plants and vegetables (Hops, cucumbers, vines, grapes, etc.)
I have left cucumbers for example to their own vices throughout a growing season and that has had some unfortunate results. They have grappled onto some of my other plants (i.e. tomatoes and corn if they were side by side) or have just made their way wherever they please. What is a proper way to train your viny plants to climb up a fence or other apparatus so that it a) still results in ample harvest, b) protects the rest of my garden and c) alleviates all the extra space that it takes up when running rampid?
Bonus points for delving further into some of the other plants like hops and grapes!
