Well I ended up getting some half whiskey barrels to grow my 3 hop plants in. I need to figure out the trellis now. How are people mounting a pole in the pots? I thought about pouring concrete into a 3" pvc tube with a galvanized pipe in the middle and somehow running 3 wires or rope down to the edge of the pot and training the hops up each wire? I have no idea what i'm doing I feel like. I believe I read one with one hop plant I can run two bines up each of the three strings? My plants will be here soon and I have no idea how i'm going to go about this. I would really like to get the trellis system into the pots before I plant them. Any help from anyone who has grown hops in pots? These containers are massive, bigger then 20 gallons, so I think I should be ok for a year or two before I get them into the ground after I move.
