117 is the Number

of hops we have thriving at the moment.  We planted 120 rhizomes, so that gives us a preliminary success rate of 97.5%!  I'd say that is pretty darn good.  I would like to think it is the excellent preparation and skill in planting, but I truly think it is the excellent stock that I received from Glen Fuller at Colorado Organic Hops.  Thanks Glen!  I did note that 2 plants had some mostly nibbled off leaves.   We will have to keep an eye on that...do rabbits like hop leaves?
