We study the evolution of 3d weakly interacting bosons at finite chemical potential with the stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We fully characterise the vortex network in an out of equilibrium. At high temperature the filament statistics are the ones of fully-packed loop models. The vortex tangle undergoes a geometric percolation transition within the thermodynamically ordered phase. After infinitely fast quenches across the thermodynamic critical point deep into the ordered phase, we identify a first approach towards the critical percolation state, a later coarsening process that does not alter the fractal properties of the long vortex loops, and a final approach to equilibrium. Our results are also relevant to the statistics of linear defects in type II superconductors, magnetic materials and cosmological models.
