My one first year chinook is starting to form the first cones and throwing out all kinds of side arms. Not pictures is My 2nd year fuggle that got a late start but now is growing 2-4 inches a day.

What type of fertilizer did you use? The animal could have beer drawn to the smell of manure

I love homebrewmart. They have excellent quality on all grain, yeast, and hops. The workers may be a little arrogant but will answer any question you have and will help you build a recipe. I just wish they were closer to me. I live in North County SD so they are too far....

Thats awesome! I want to move north just to grow hops. Its tough in socal

Here is my first year chinook My other four plants are like this. 2 first uear chinooks, 1 second year fuggle, and 1 second year centennial

I would leave it in primary for the full 30 days. The yeast could be cleaning up still.

I had a horrible experience at the smokin' beaver. He was too busy commenting on facebook to give me the time of day.

Two of the four rhizomes i got from cram broke ground over the last two days! I will post a picture tomorrow

This! Be patient and remember this year chances are you wont get any hops. First year the plants ate establishing their root base.

Nice! Have a picture? What yeast did you use? I ended up going with wlp007

I brewed today. With a few last minute changes that I bolded. My homebrew shop doesn't carry melanodin malt so he said Munich is a decent replacement. I also added 1/2 oz of cascade at both 5 minutes and flame out. I forgot to take a picture but it came out a bright red.
