FINALLY! I'm in Akron and I have been waiting for this since I was 20! (I'm 46 now) About damn time that beer got here. I have a bad feeling that the major breweries like Bud and Miller are going to get raped here soon!
My brewing partner planted Cascade a few years ago. The damn things went APE and are now just HUGE! He gets not ounces from his yearly harvests but pounds. I am in my second year of Williamette and they too are starting to get nuts!
NICE!
I wonder what all is involved in transplanting them from one area to another. I tried to transplant on Williamette to a sunnier area and ended up killing it.
I think.
*I* Thought so. I kinda figured they would be okay eventually. Just give them time and they should grow just fine. When they REALLY start growing like crazy get some pics!
You will. If you are on the Eaasat coast with it being so cool...it may take a little while for them to do anything.
Just keep talking to them and when they finally start doing something, drag your wifey out there to talk to them as well.
Good lord. I am so very, very jealous. What an awesome project and you did such a damn good job. I'm planning on moving sometime early spring. Can you come over and help me with my build? I'll provide beer! :)
Hey...I'll have a contest over at my place! Bring me a case or tow of your finest homebrew and enough money for a couple of pizza's as well.
BTW, Everyone who enters...you'll get an award. Some kind of award.
But everyone gets one!
