Ok, Hops are 3'+ and doing Great, but I've noticed that they aren't as Green leafed as last year, when I had ammendments to the soil (1st year).
So I was thinking I'd buy some fertilizer to add, but came accross other threads discussing Coffee grounds, fire ash, compost, etc to add. So as I have just turned my compost pile (grass, leaves only) last w/e. It got me to thinking, I should add my buckets of Coffee grounds and the wood stove ash buckets to the pile and turn.... let sit for a week or 2 then add to my Hop Mounds...
Granted I just chipped a whole bunch of limbs from winter wood harvesting and covered the Row with 4-6" of wood chips to keep down the weeds...
I'd like to know what others do for fertilizer or compost additions.
Cheers
