Planted my hop Rhizomes today

Hallertau, Cascade. Centennial. Tettnang
Nice sunny spot with good soil and plentiful moisture up against a the south side of a big stone wall which should tranfer lots of the sun's warmth into the soil .

Awesome...congrats. This is my second year...looking forward to a better year than last. Hopefully the summer drought we had last year won't repeat.

Good for you Cliff, you'll be amazed at how fast they grow. I hope you planted them in seperate planters, they will spread and mingle.
