All Joking aside, My prize cascade came down with a bad case of spider mites here lately. eradication has not stopped some browning on the cones.:(

Awww bummer!
 
Igg, in response to your 4th year hops:

Even though they were 4th year plants, they were transplanted...and i'm sad b/c mine are turning brown and starting to dye :_(

matt jones has some 2 yr plants that are ridiculously larger than both of our's.
 
Mine is still trying to send up new shoots. After the spider mite set back, I am considering letting 2 new ones go. This thing is a monster!!
 
New pictures....CONES!

Oh it aint over til harvest!;)

Those are densely packed! My cones are bigger, and probably more of them, but you have more per sq ft I would say.

I will get some pics.
