    I look forward to seeing the results. Is there going to be some brewing going on?

    I hope so! I'm working on some brewing equipment as we speak.

    This post will be the placeholder for me to put some pix in this thread.

    Last year's are coming up, rather vigorously, however something was eating the Nugget plants, so I made some chickenwire exclusionary fences for them. Still nothing from the Chinook plants, however it was into May last year when they came up.

    Will



    The basic setup. I have the lines pulled for this year, but I didn't stake them in the ground yet.



    Chinook, that didn't come up yet.



    Cascade, with exclusionary fence.

    To further you inquiry, there is definitely going to be brewing this year. I just got all the equip this week, and I'll b practicing on some extract brews leading up to hopefully a wethop IPA this late summer.

    Well congrats on the first step to what will most likely be your new addiction. I started home brewing about 7 years ago and love it. I don't get to spend as much time doing it any more but I do take one or two days a month to do a little refining so to Speak.

    Today the nugget and cascade are 6-7 feet tall. One Chinook is making a go of it. The other, I don't have high hopes for.

    My best plant (nugget) took a beating with some high wind today. Broke 2 of the 3 bines off. Alas.
