Hop Growing Thread 2013!

Well, hop growing season is officially over as I harvested that last bit of hops and cut down my bines. Kind of get teary eyed looking at that high trellis and nothing growing towards it.

Very interesting thread!!! I read the first 6 pages and see where there are some folks in warmer climates growing hops. Traditionally hops have always been grown in cooler climates. I’m from upstate NY and that was the hop capitol of America up until prohibition. I live just outside of Atlanta, but own property in far north Georgia which is cooler and at a higher elevation. Just wondering how the hops turned out from folks living in warmer (non-traditional) growing areas?
