I can post some more tomorrow, but my cascades are already throwing cones and are about 11 feet tall.. I guess you can grow them in Florida, lets see how they handle the summer. They came from GreatLakes and were put in the ground on 2-18.

I know, I know. The plants are too close to each other. I accidentally ordered more rhizomes than I intended to.
...
But hey now - tell us about that drip system. Looks pretty cool!
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good fertilizer?
Scott's or the cheap stuff from Home Depot.
Oh well thats easy. Wasnt sure if it needed to be something super special
Holey crud, if only Texas was a blue state, and not so hot.
Holy smokes - looking good HopVol.
It would be helpful to have the posters location or at least grow zone along with these awesome progress shots. I'm starting to feel bad about my 1st years over here in Massachusetts.
Yes, here in Houston my first year Cascade is going NUTS (planted a rhizome in January I got from a friend in WI) this is them yesterdayView attachment 354940View attachment 354941
Do any of you use liquid seven on your hop plants to kill off pests? Something has been chewing the leaves a bit. I looked under the leaves and didn't see anything. I did find green worms and green aphids on rose bushes today though.

Completed some repairs on broken lines and trained bines this afternoon. Things are beginning to fill in nicely.

Normally I'm harvesting my first Cascade cones by now, but everything is slow and behind schedule this year. My tallest Cascade is less than 2' tall, Centennials are less than 1' tall and the Magnum and Columbus have barely broken ground.
