Can hops be trained grow horizontally, the length of a picket fence fence? I was thinking of putting a piece of wood/standoff at each fence post and run a string line from standoffs to train on. Thoughts?
In my current setup, my 4 plants are in containers. They grow up jute twine to the clothes line, which runs due north and south. The two hop plants on the north side of the clothes line were easy to train to grow due south, horizontally on the clothes line. The two hop plants on the south side of the clothes line, however, were not easy to train to grow horizontally north along the clothes line - they kept trying to grow backwards, south, towards the sun.
