Hops are coming along pretty well, and with all of the rain we've had in the past week or so, I haven't had to worry about watering them - yet. Once the warmer weather kicks in it'll start drying up. I'm amazed at how robust these plants are for being only second year plants. The Cascades are pretty bushy, the Nuggets (one pictured here) are sending off shoots left and right, and the Willamettes are both productive with the shoots and foliage. Hopefully I can avoid any of the mildews this year and have a bountiful crop with which to brew. One more step towards self-sustaining brewing.
