Been wondering sumptin......The compacta I have has very loooong vines (see pic) and they are rather heavy. Is it okay to just let it continue to hang or would it do better with some sort of "support"? With all my new cuttings I'm moving stuff around trying to optimize space and I wonder if I should put my compacta on a shelf on my plant stand and let the vines rest on the shelf so there isn't so much stress/"pulling' on the vines. THOUGHTS?
