I try. To growing chinook hops. I'm in the north east n.y. and will give It a go.

Thanks. Your video did help although I wonder if someone can answer something for me - I have a hop vine growing really well on its second season which I started from seeds. Only problem is, not a single cone so I suspect its male. I live in North UK and I don't know what variety the vine is. Are some plants just useless males, simple as that?

I was wondering,here in NE Ohio,if Haulertau hops would grow well? I'm kickin around the idea of adding it to our home garden.

@unionrdr I live in NE Ohio and am having some success with Chinook.

Can you grow hops upside down in a hanging 5gallon bucket similar to tomatoes? you can gradually raise the bucket as the hops grow...

I started growing 4 different varieties about 5 years ago here in in New England. The Chinook produces are great yield but the other 3 (Mt. Hood, Sterling and Christal) don't seem to like my climate so much and are very stunted and produce few cones.

Clockwise looking down the string. Also counter or anti clockwise south of the equator is an urban legend. They run theirs clockwise as well.

Clockwise if i were looking down the sting or up the string?

Can I use the hops I harvest the first year in my brew? Should my homebrew supply store carry the clones? Do you know of a site where I can buy supplies in bulk instead of paying ridiculous prices at the store? Thanks in advance.
