Looks relatively anticlockwise to me in a green house up north of the equator. Meaning us south of the equator experience growth of the clockwise variety on most deciduous and annual climbing vines. There are always exceptions to the rule....thats how plants work. Certainly Hops do follow this...

Same deal as flushing the toilet....if we had the same type here as the US they would go in opposite directions...beans do the exact same here. And the exact opposite in the Northern Hemisphere too....as in climb clockwise.

Clockwise in the southern hemisphere, anticlockwise in the Northern Hemisphere ;)

Right more from yestd.....This is how we're looking now....Daylight hours are starting to crank up....Still a long way to go before Summer Solstice though....and I have massive amounts of work to do!! Really great a lot of you have early stuff coming up already. Still cold, wet, cold and...

Good progress today.....more photos around but tired.... Almost planting time.....got it ripped into rows too...seems nothing needs to grow deep here due to the water being abundant on the surface!

Dw Ill have a stack of rhizomes to sell next year.... :/ just had to jump on it for that price!!!

Ill grab 10 Centennial thanks. Postage to 5153 SA Regards Stuart

Ahahahhaha yep....dont forget ya dextrose too.....

Got sick of the plastic spoon because it couldnt actually reach the bottom of the malt pipe without me sticking my hand in. Searched the shed and found a decent piece of wood in the way of an old hickory axe handle. Couldnt sleep last night so I went out and knocked this up wasnt planning on...

Thats an hour both directions.......think ill pass

Im reviving this because Mt Barker seems to be getting a few brew shops now. According to Google there are now 3 place, Brewcraft (havnt been in yet cause they're not cheap), Ill be forced to go one day im sure. Never bought grain from them so Im not to sure on the quality if they even have...

Im planning on that this year. Just for a couple of varieties I want to keep a close eye on! Our veggie patch is large and Its completely fenced off so Im not going to have to do anything much. There is absolutely no reason it cant be done besides maybe shading things out that you dont want...

That is a damn good price actually. Unfortunately I have sourced all I need this year. Might get some Nugget next year though!

Just a word of wisdom......Hops will always change slightly to the conditions they're grown in. Unfortunately I cannot access the databases yet...maybe one day I will get access....they have done extensive work on grapes especially around Adelaide. They are now studying all the plants that went...

Yeah good stuff. I have purchased an aeroponic cloner. I root them then put them into pots. I got a really really late start on it last year....and I didnt have a greenhouse setup either. The whole first batch of shoots are going to get cut and cloned this year....so hopefully this is how im...

Righto. Since I seem to have my ear to the ground on this. I have found a mob up in QLD who run a rare plant nursery. They have some decent stock. As they produce their own crowns in pots which is a winner in my book. I just ordered 20 Target from them packed and shipped well and they look...

Ill take my hat off to anyone that can grow a first year rhizomes that takes over their place.....I mean I could....but the soil down the back and sun aspect is far better than here....Maybe if I was in Tassy with a 4x4m back yard id be worried ;) that said...they do grow well in the right spot...

So this is the above marked off area......160 zomes are going in there @ 5-7m. Looks like I may be making up the numbers cloning the early shoots cause no yay for digging.....but should do alright still ;) So plans this year. I have already sourced, 20 Target, 20 Chinook, 20 Cascade, 4 Red...

Weed mat is good too....for weeds you know....its seriously cheap you can move it if you want.....takes about 20 mins to install.....get on it. There will be more in a few weeks......much much much more!

Moving some crowns around its still WAY to early here. They're very much still in dormancy. I will plant when the soil starts to warm up a fair bit more. We'll still get some cold cold nights between now and mid August. Not sure why so many people are planting in pots.....Wont work anywhere near...
