I've been enjoying your blog...

Keith said...: Mine never got over 8 ft. the first year, but in the second they hit 20+, so he just needs to be patient. He'll be much happier next year. That part of the state gets more rain than we do, so that's good too.; Wednesday, July 01, 2009
Adam said...: Thanks Keith. I'll have to pass that along.; Thursday, July 02, 2009
Unknown said...: Which, if any, hop varieties do you think might do well on an old tobacco farm in the Danville area?
