That's the thing, the leaves are dry and crispy, but my water schedule is more than I've read is normal. This is happening on most of my plants. I just dug down into the soil and about an inch and a half down it was dry.

My only guess is over watering, I've been watering a lot, and by the suggestion of a commercial grower in the area in cutting my watering schedule way down. Any idea what's going on with this thing?

Update- the part of the rhizome that I replanted never sent up shoots.

I'll definitely check out BT and captan, I've never heard of them before. Thanks!

It's definitely not a hop looper, I think it's a cut worm. I also found this worm looking thing who made a cocoon out of one of the leaves, not sure what it is.

Some of my leaves are getting holes in them and in wondering what it's from. I looked at the underside of them and found some black specks that may be bugs, they're just too small to get a good look at. Any idea what they are? Then I found this ****er on another hop plant about 15' away, he...

I don't think I can give you an exact answer but beware, I planted a rhizome this year with a bunch of green leafy shoots, buried the shoots and all, then one day the new shoot I had just died, after I dug it up I found that the shoots that I buried rotted and the rot spread to the rhizome and...

Well now I'm excited LOL That must be pretty good for 1st year growth.

You can use mulch for the weeds, I'm planning on planting clover. I've used miracle grow and noticed the bines growing faster. This is my trellis set up, poles are 10' high 10' apart with 2 plants in between, and I used 1/4" twine.

What are these little parts growing from under the leaves? Are they new shoots? Should I be clipping them off or letting them grow? On some bines they are under almost every set of leaves.

Autopsy complete! I dug up the rhizome and had some interesting finds, from this one good looking rhizome with tons of shoots only one made it to the surface, the rest of them died and rotted. I'm not sure how well you can see it in the picture but it seems that all the rot made its way into...

That's what I'm thinking, thanks.

Out of all 12 plants, 6 varieties, this is the only bine to do this to me.

The bine has fallen over now and I'm going to cut it off, I'm just wondering if the whole rhizome is infected and if I should dig it up? I planted 2 Rhizomes I the same spot so it's likely that the other 2 bines are from the other rhizome.

It's been getting plenty of water, I took this right before watering. Not one of my other 12 plants look like this.

I actually found one on a different plant earlier today. I just dug about 4" down around this bine and found no evidence of cut worms though. The only thing I can think of is that this particular rhizome is different from my others because when I got it it was covered in shoots about 6" long...

It was growing fine and all the sudden it started laying over and looking horrible, every other one looks great aside from some small pest damage, but I don't see any evidence of pests on this one. Anyone know what it might be? I feel like the picture doesn't show how bad it looks.

I don't mean a leak at any of the connections, I just mean liquid co2 going into the regulator as opposed to gas. I just talked to a guy at airgas and he said that the liquid level was probably just lower than the valve(luckily for me). He said that if liquid got into my regulator that it would...

I figure I should add that it's a brand new tank, and I inspected the lines and there was no visible liquid co2 in them, (assuming that's possible). Here's a picture of the valve on my tank, just in case.

I had my co2 tank on its side for days supplying pressure to my keg, and then I found out that you're not supposed to do that, but from what I can tell no liquid co2 left the tank and my regulator seems fine. I quickly called the guy at a welding shop and he said it was fine to keep it on its...
