So my house (which I'm renting out) now has a couple pitbulls living in the backyard, including a male that recently jumped into my (already somewhat hostile) neighbors backyard. Quite impressive, really.
In order to stop him from doing it int he future, his owner offered to setup a bunch of vine lattices/supports - an idea I embraced... under the premise that they be filled with hops.
I've never grown them before and am anxious to try. I do have some gardening experience... but growing vines (intentionally) will be new.
As I live in the San Fernando Valley, they'd ideally be somewhat heat and drought resistant (its pretty dry - though these will get plenty of water - and they'll get a decent share of sun, with summers in the mid 90s consistently). Something that thrives in East Oregon probably isn't gonna love my backyard. I do realize that its not the 'ideal' hop growing climate, but I'm sure some will grow. Anything?
