Early success!!!

They say that you won't see hop sprouts until about 2 weeks after planting, but today I have found at least 2 or 3 sprouts from each of the five varieties planted.  Welcome to the world F.R.O.G. hops.  Michigan hop farming has a new major player.

Plant-a-palooza

 
We had great success at Plant-a-palooza 2010!!  A wonderful group of friends and family joined us and we got all 2500 rhizomes in the ground before 3pm.  The weather was bright sun and warmth.  Now we have the nervous time of waiting until the plants come up.  Thanks to all who came out!!!
