    Mutant hops?

    If you go by post #6, the pictures under the 1st one are neighboring bines...I'd have to go look at the placard I put down to know for sure, but they are cascades. Most of you guys are far more experienced in cone structure, etc than I...Maybe it is a mislabeled cascade? I did harvest a decent...

    Mutant hops?

    Fish? Nah....Hoffa? Ummmm, I'll plead the 5th ;) I do use bone meal when the cones start appearing, prior to that 13-2-13 fertilizer. (soil has compost mixed in at the start of the season too....One of the local brewery guys swears there's nuclear waste or voodoo in the soil too due to the crazy...

    Mutant hops?

    Positive...I'll try and grab a pic of the bine tomorrow (Hoppy, since you're on my friends list on Fb, I think you can actually see the pics of them in my "Hops '13" album (Bill).

I'm pretty colorblind) are exceptional. :rockin...

    I never tire of this time of year

    Yeah, no doubt. I'll enjoy it while I can...and between trading and selling what I can't use, it helps offset costs for my hobby, so that will always bring a smile :D

    I never tire of this time of year

    My favorite time of the year....when the hop vines start shooting out of the ground...This will be my 3rd year, 1st year was outstanding (if people didn't know I just put them in they'd never beleive it was 1st year harvest), last year was even better, but showed me my trellis system was...
