I'll keep my eye out for you then. Thanks

We are located about 15 mins west of East Lansing. I also have a large pole barn only about 2 miles from the highway.

Yes I have a small farm between Lansing and Detroit. My mother grew up in Huntington woods and her father is the one who purchased the land I live on and farm along time ago. The big hop farm is going to be just south of mount pleasant. If all goes well I will continue spreading hops as far as I...

A bee keeper. My neighbor is a bee keeper Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I've also already designed but need to fabricate a roofing structure to stop water from rotting my beam joints. Planning on possibly building bat houses and getting in business with the neighbor who's a new keeper. I also have a badass M4 and 308 for any animals I feel should back off my hops...

As a horse farm fella doing posts is like breathing Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I have a feeling that I will run into animal issues. I have had that manure tested. It was slightly acidic, done by Michigan State. I really am trying to make this as cheap as possibly by using my own lumber as materials. Due to the size of my project those cost are crushing. There's no way I...

I am trying this as a test run. As we are cutting those wood lots. We are leaving a reasonable amount topped at 25 feet to run our trellis leaving them rooted and stripping the bark. Gonna see how long they stay. I am working with 400 acres of wooded planted and natural forests. I have seen that...

Yes I have a horse boarding business that has about 30 years of composted manure on about 1 1/2 acres. Waiting do have the soils tested but going to this week or next. Thank you for sharing your experience Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

If anything those trees have given the area some fairly good compost. I believe it will be a little acidic as well. I'm just doing a test run on these 5 acres. First year as I stated. I will be having soil samples as soon as the ground thaws. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

These roots go 20 feet potentially deep Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

First year either way is root development Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I was thinking about using the logs we harvest to sell to hop growers for poles or use in future projects. I'll be thinning a 10acre lot next week and will show what we get. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

We have been using the trees for utility poles as well as pulp wood. My mother would really like me to build her a new cabin with some of the lumber. I'll be working on this project for a few years before it will even become close to being done. I really wanted to start taking with growers...

80% is on the high side as well Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

From what I've read the first year you'll possibly receive 80% due to the plant developing it's root more than producing hops. Second year should be booming. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
