I am growing 2 horizon rhyzomes, and one willamette. And without further ado, here they are:
The biggest one is one of the horizons, and the smallest one is also a horizon. I don't know why it is that way, but what the heck. The willamette was planted about 2 weeks after the horizons went in the ground, and is doing just fine. I haven't used any fertilizer on them other than worm castings that come from my worm pile. My buddy who is growing centennial hops put Scotts organic fertilizer on his and says that they are now about chest high. I haven't seen them to verify, but am happy that his are doing so well. Because I still get to use them, even if they do better than mine because my friend doesn't drink beer. Freakazoid that he is.
L8R,

Was browsing your blog and didn't see any mention of the results of your hop growing? So how'd it go? Did you get any cones this year? I've heard it takes sometimes a couple of years until you get good cones. I'm looking at growing some cascade and nugget (I contacted Weyerbacher and they said they're growing cascade and nugget), and with your brewing report, I was thinking about trying some willamette and horizon as well. All in all, I think I'll probably get 10 rhyzomes or so for next spring, and go from there
