Abstract

Open ended tubes which are impervious to water and having a length of at least two feet are placed in holes in the ground. The tubes are filled with a sterile growing medium. The vines are planted in said growing medium. The exposed portion of the medium is covered by a filter material porous to water but impervious to pests. The tubes force the roots to grow downwardly and then out the bottom end of the tubes and then horizontally into the native soil.
