Well, the results were bittersweet. Pun intended.
I harvested about 4 pounds of hops. Each plant is supposed to yeild 2 pounds, so while it was low, it was expected for 1st year as most of the energy goes to the root system. Here's a couple pictures near the end, and the harvest.


Here's the bitter part: I gave them to a coworker to give to his neighbor who is a seasoned brewer. Well, dipshit just let them sit around, and didn't brew with them, and just threw them away.
Coworker was embarassed / pissed to tell me.
This year, I'm thinking about starting to brew.
The powers that be might take it all away
