Growing Hops: Progress Report

See what happened next -> Day 49: 80 inches
The largest cascade plant is growing 5.25 inches a day and is now 67 inches tall. The other cascade plant is actually catching up now. All the others are doing just fine. We continue to water them each day. The cascade seems to be growing faster. Might be because they get more direct sun during the day. The wire mesh is keeping out the rabbits. My daughter found one of them removed and in the bushes so she put it back where it belonged. Hmmm...I wonder what happened to it? Also, I did notice that one of the cascade hops leaves is being attacked by something. Looks like the work of a bug or a worm of some sort. Hmmm...we'll have to keep an eye on that one.
