Show me in two years when they're swallowing your house.

Lookin fab, just be patient with them, they won't give you many cones until the third year. My one Cascade survivor finally made it there.
I planted some in 2021 in a not great arbor. After years of struggling we just figured it had died or didn't have enough sun. We got a wooden arbor last year and the hops found it grew like 6 ft with one vine.
This year we have like 15 vines from it going up the entire 8 ft and taking over the entire arbor. I think we will get our first nugget this year. So be patient with your non sprouted one
This is the way to beer trees
That’s good to hear, it’s funny I’ve got some plants that I left for dead (hostas) and they came back this year after tidying up the mulch last year. They weren’t shaded though, so I believe they got cooked.
It’s sprouted, you can see it on the back lattice, probably just buried it deeper, but who knows. I doubt these will be tall enough, next year I can build something more permanent, mainly throwing stuff at the soil and seeing what works and I can handle haha.
