Banana peels are one of the best fertilizers for roses. Are they productive for hops too?

Anybody use worm castings?
Big believer in worm castings here, have seen them working on many crops / flowers grown in soil. With worm castings you'll want to pay explicit attention to the NPK ratio and use appropriately. Castings come in all sorts and the NPK will depend on the organics used to create the castings.
The best way to use worm castings is to create a bacterial tea by placing a nylon with a small amount of castings in a bucket of water with an airstone. Add an amount of molasses proportional to the amount of castings and let it bubble for 1-2 days. Pour it on your plants and they'll love it or use it as a foliar spray.
Castings all the way man.
Grass Clippings:
Are grass clippings ok? After mowing the yard, instead of dumping the bag in with my normal compost/the grass pile I make each year, would it be ok to put some around the hops?
