Weeeelllll it's all based about zones and sun. My yard grows nothing due to its shade. However a English/German type noble hop like Northern Brewer loved my cool shady area. Didn't expect it to grow but it was like a weed within a year. I did see on this forum that a couple of people in Chicago...

Aaaah. Plenty of green there. Searching Chicago and Mt hood on this forum shows that Mt Hood likes your zone. Rhizomes like a little bit of mound to grow up for sun and down for water. I still believe it will probably fight to find what it likes

Hops are resilient and I think your intuition may be correct about rain effecting it. Doing a quick Google search pointed back to hbt :) Hoping for sunny days may be best cure. I always find babying is not the answer but nutrient help seems an option. Not quite the answer but learning is half...

If I wasn't so lazy and late I'd be smoking meat. Widowmaker x Modestman collab

Aperitif before steak

Not the most exciting pix but more mushrooms. This time from someone I use to buy from just down the street. She grew them in her yard and now she's huge and moved to a warehouse. She's in stores and restaurants. May have to fire up the dehydrator to save all these things

From Twitterville and a couple of towns over in Minuteman Park

Hey! I'm not quite an old man yet but I am testing out the perks 😁 OT: Schilling

Hmmm.. thanks. Satellite is my friend. I've found a lot of good spots using it. Looking at Rapids satellite looks like there's tons of good spots to go along with it's reputation. I do know a lot of guides still go there and I'm all for a good mainer can't get there from here misdirection to a...

Might get lucky and see the Northern Lights. Extra bonus mosquitoes are low OT: Treehousevitamin Sea

No I haven't hit the Middle Dam but that was one of the first places I marked on my bucket list when I first started going back there. I wanted to visit before they did the reconstruction but it never happened. Has a lot of history and sounds very secluded. I travel the extra distance going thru...

That's one big pint 😁 When/if I ever start brewing again a RIS is top on my list. Something big and something to age.
