Hi all,
so... this spring marks my second failed attempt at growing hops from rhizomes. It's been over a month since I planted, I've kept the soil moist and they get plenty of sunshine but no signs of life. I dug up one of the four I planted and there's no indication of growth at all. it just looks like a dried out stick. Two years in a row, I've bought rhizomes as soon as they went on pre-sale and planted them the moment they arrived in my mail box (cascade if you're wondering). Both attempts, the rhizomes were apparently DOA. I think that it's just too damn hot in Phoenix and the rhizomes are already dead from mishandling by USPS.
So, I was wondering if anyone in Phoenix is successfully growing hops and wouldn't mind hooking a brother up with some rhizomes.
