RE::Burying vines

I believe the best time to bury the vines is when you see that tiny little
root growing from the base of the leaf joint.  I experimented with a few
plants last year.   I found by waiting a little, the root system from
burying the vine created a spider web system on the plants that had the
root at the leaf base.  If I buried too soon the root system seem to form
less, but wider roots.  I prefer the spider feeder roots over a few wide
long roots.
Only my opinion
