Last night we had quite a storm. On two of three plants, a few of the leafs got bent over by the wind. Also, I think a secondary vine or two are kinked.

What's my best move? Should I cut off the kinked vines and bent over leafs and treat with sulfur? Or should I wait and see if they right themselves?

Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I suggest that you wait and see if the plant fixes itself. They are pretty good for it unless something actually tears or breaks off.

I agree. The plant will respond to the damage with more vigor. After the sun has been out for a day, you can take bamboo stick and prop up the leaves that are broken to the point the wont stand back up on their own. Watch them where they broke and where they meet the vine for signs of turning brown and getting soft. If that happens cut them, otherwise let them stay as long as you can.
