>>999083I'm growing hops and some feedback would be terrific.
I've got a 12 foot by 5.5 foot raised planter box where I've planted 9 rhizomes of 3 different varietals; Chinook, Centennial, and Mt. Hood. I probably have them a bit to closely planted with regard to separating varietals but given I'm not making a commercial product, I don't mind.
My questions are what sort of food is best for them, is there a natural pest repellent I can use, and which trellis design works the best for collecting hops?
Pic related is the largest shoot I have so far, a Mt. Hood bine-to-be. Hopefully it posts vertically.
