I understand that the first year, the hop vine might grow 5 feet or might grow 20 depending on various things. But assuming I put them in a well-lit spot and did everything well, does anybody have any guess at what a 1 year yield would be for a cascade or other quick-growing hop plant?
I'm definitely interested in growing hops but I may be moving after this year and if there's not a good chance of me getting many hops my first year I might elect to wait until I'm a bit more settled down. I understand that there's a lot that factors into it and you can't really give me a solid answer, but I would appreciate it if you guys would try. Is it uncommon to get, say, 3/4 lb of cascades your first year (from one plant)?
