My hop plants have had a growth spurt in the last week or so. Probably still a little behind a lot people being in the north.
Are these all the same variety?

Im afraid your support frame is no where near strong enough. In 2 months time when they are bigger a small gust of wind will bring it all down. 8ft fencing posts and washing line is better. are better
I left them on last year and all was fine:thumb:So the hops are growing, but what's the deal with the side shoots, do you leave them or snip them off?
Totally underestimated the growth, no pics tonight but my hops are now over 3m tall and have had to string up a horizontal string work to keep the in check������
I put a mint plant in with mine as its supposed to help with pests i believe and not stunted them in any wayHi this is my hop progress so far just wondering would it be okay stick couple bedding flowers in the pots beside the hopes or would that put hop plant under strain

My EKG got it's head removed somehow and didn't really grow more than a foot for several months then suddenly one of the shoots took off and started to climb, don't think I'm going to get anything from this this year but maybe next year.
My prima Donna however has spread allover the shed and has the start of some hop cones forming, not sure if these are going to develop enough to be useful this year, how is everyone else's doing?
I find that snails can also benefit from the same treatment. That extra weight makes them fly further.I gave 'em an early flying lesson, they're living with the neighbours 3 doors away now...:thumb:
:twisted:Found another THREE b@$ t..d caterpillars on my Fuggle today. Comma butterfly ones - dark brown & white, designed to look like a dollop of bird ****e.

as posted earlier I found 2/3 on my new baby centennial killing loads of leaves,moved the plant to a new location but leaves are still turning brown like they have been sprayed with fence preservative but the hop is still growing vertically,just hope that it survives this year and comes back stronger next yearI found them on my plant and they pretty much destroyed it in 12 hours.
