  Do they die back midsummer but still come back? Should I dig it up in the fall and look for
  some sign of life?

  I have four second-year hops plants here in central Kansas. We had a horrible year of heat and
  drought. Three plants seemed to survive, but with difficulty. My other plant died back to the
  ground abou...

  Hey, I just tried out Hank is Wiser and I have to tell you the beer is excellent. The
  atmosphere is great. My wife and I were sitting at a table and the brewer (Hank's son) was

  Well that's encouraging to hear. If the stuff can survive Texas, Kansas shouldn't be impossible

  sounds like a...

  Last year I planted four varieties of hops, Zeus, Mt. Hood, Centennial and Willamette. All

  stock.

  I was also going to recommend Heorot in Muncie. (30 minutes N. of Anderson) That place is an

  Agrisupply has incredible prices on burners. The BG14 is only 29.95. Does anyone know of
  another seller with similar prices? Agrisupply is out of stock at the moment with up to a month
  wait.

• Posted in thread: Can the washed yeast go to bottom layer? on 02-28-2012 at 11:07 AM
  Thanks. I do keep the yeasty water. I did that three times as advised in the sticky on yeast

  better with ...
