Three months ago I planted my very first Hop Rhizomes and I am so proud of my nine fluffy, yet thin hops that have just blossomed. The Cascade is growing at a crazy pace. It is now as tall as my deck which is about ten feet and then goes a little bit further as I extended the rope. The birds keep eating the ends so it won't go further unless I figure a way around the birds. The other two (Northern Brewer and Centennial) finally got going after the birds terrorized them. I think the birds like noble hops more.

The
cascade towers above the other two.
Centennial, they don't have spell check when writing with a Sharpie.
Damn it, once again how I rely on spell check to make this blog work!! Tomorrow morning I'm going out there and fixing these!!
