Long story short, I know that one of these hop plants is a tettnang and the other is horizon, but I don't know which is which (moved twice the last year, but managed to get these back in the ground last season, but while transplanting to my current place and these two got mixed up). This will be the second season in the ground here, and I am expecting a good enough yield to harvest (they're going nuts already).
I'm hoping that someone has a good enough experience with these varieties to tell which one is which, or even what one of them is a horizon/tettnang. I know that I can wait until the end of the season, boil each in small containers and try to smell/taste the difference, but that may/may not work either.
Help is much appreciated! Here are the two together:
Closeup on the left:
Closeup on the right
Any idea?
The one on right has darker vines closer to purple in color and brighter, smaller/condensed leaves, while the other has vines that are more brown and slightly "thinner" leaves (best I can do for description).
