Growing Hops: Collection of Posts
I'm gathering all the "growing hops" posts here. I'll put a link to this post over there on the right to make it easier to find. In the list of links below you will find pictures of hops plants as they grow in my backyard from rhizomes to full bines!. I also have notes on how I built a trellis and plan to grow, harvest, dry and finally brew beer with the hops cones. I have never done this before so let me know if you have any suggestions :-)

Do you think we could make a "24-esque" show out of this growing hops series ;-)
You know, take hour-by-hour, day-by-day pictures with riveting commentary. Stealth attacks by the dogs trying to pee on them, rabbits trying to eat them. Then, you could play Jack Bauer trying to foil their evil plans. Buhahahahah.
(sorry, I must be a little sleep-deprived this morning!)
Damn! You figured it out. I'll share the footage with you now that you know ;-)
