With all the wild weather this year,,,how's the hops growing out there?
I hear the Oregon already has burned back the first growth on the H.L. var. lupulus plants.
Here's the first growth for us here in Embudo, New Mexico. This pict is of a female plant of a high aroma H.L. var. neomexicana crossed with a high alpha H.L.var. lupulus.
Amazing! This plant got it's last water on 10/10/09, was subjected to temps from -5F to 85F in a greenhouse where it was dry for 5.5 months, and is growing fast!! She just got her first water and was growing hard before she got it! Hardy! Of course,,not all plants survive our torture testing.
All our other varieties of H.L. var. neomexicana are about ready to break the soil surface soon. We have quite a few culls from breedings that are ready to find new homes soon,,,we can only keep a few to ramp up! Here we grow!
