i live in northern Florida and this will be my first year growing hops. The people that i've talked to say that specially for down here you want to have morning sun and afternoon shade but the problem is that the spot i originally picked to plant them gets virtually no morning sun and a lot of afternoon sun. My question to all you guru's is, will this cook my hop plants to much??? I have one other spot i could possibly try that doesnt get as much afternoon sun, so should i maybe look at trying to switch over to that spot??? My mom is a certified "master gardener" and she said that getting afternoon sun shouldnt affect them to much but they don't teach you a lick of hops growing in gardening school. The hops im getting are Nugget, Willamette, and Chinook which all sites ive seen say that these hops grow good in almost any condition but idk for sure. Any opinions would really help. thanks
