I planted 100 Nugget and Zeus rhizomes this year. These will all be sold commercially to local breweries. I have plans to expand in the future, but didn't want to get in over my head starting out. Anyway, enjoy and Prost! Attached File Attached File Attached File

Second year it grew about 7ft and made some hop cones, and I thought I was on the way. This year, back to about a foot. Not sure what I'm doing wrong; maybe it is the heat here.

Some of the Zeus plants were ready. Harvester made quick work of it. Over 70lbs of wet hops. They'll need to be dried and packaged.
