The Harvest



So its time to harvest our hops from our mystery plant that was here when we bought the house. We don't do anything to it, we don't water it, train it, put twine up or anything else. It just goes crazy and it's an absolute monster. I can't get to all the hops cause the vines extend twenty feet into three different neighbors yard but we still got a lot of them.



The picture is what we pulled off the vine today but if you can see that mound of vines on the ground there are still a lot more to be picked off and dried. We'll start vacuum sealing them tomorrow. I'm excited to see how much we get.
