This is something that interests me. I have only got one season under 
my belt so far so I don't have much personal experience to go on. 
From what I observed I concluded that the wind blows the vine much 
like a weather vain causing it to grow in the same direction as the 
prevailing winds. Does anyone have experience that directly contradicts
this? Do your vines grow into the wind? Ken
