Some are green and some are turning
Brown? This is my first time growing hops so I'm not sure what to think of this.
Thanks😊
 
I don't know where you live, but it's fall here. Everything is either finished ripening, dying back, or turning brown. I picked my hops a couple of weeks ago.
 
pretty normal, all my fresh hops just got delivered and they are browning a bit.
 
+1

I waited about one hot week too long to harvest my Cascades. I think I threw about half of the yield into the compost. My Nugget, on the other hand, was about 2 weeks behind that and the yield was amazing.

Troegs Nugget Nectar, the home version?

I'm in Washington state
I guess I better harvest them quick
Just a couple are turning brown
We had a weird summer this year
Thanks for the advise��
 
Also I want to make more
Rhizons by clipping them
Is this a good time for that or should I wait until spring?
 
Great thanks for the advice!
And I will post on the other forum
Next time thanks for the heads up
