Hops are back again....

Thanks for the input guys! I planted the rhizome today and I am going to go with the clothesline setup. I put one treated 4X4 2' in the ground leaving about 6' in height, and the other pole about 12' away from that. I figure that way the vine can grow to 18' which is about the average.

I didn't have my camera, but I will take pictures asap.

Hi there, I wanted to share my experiences with successfully growing cascade hops in my Wisconsin backyard last year. Photos are great and I even documented the hop trellis that I put up to support the 2 cascade root stocks.

Check out the Photos here from last years' cascade hops.



This year I will continue to add new pics of the cascade hops as they grow and am going to be planting a new goldings ryzome which I bought from freshops this spring. The cascade hops are already sprouting out of the ground fabulously and I need to break out my camera already to capture the sights of the first sprouts breaking ground.
