First brew now on the go. Picked the hops and straight into the boil. 150g of green hops.

Many of the hop flowers have leaves growing from within the petals. Not seen this before

I had this last year with my Northdown when I had a cracking harvest - I picked the biggest leaves out. Nothing in this years.

First brew now on the go. Picked the hops and straight into the boil. 150g of green hops.

Based on what I've been told in my Drying Hops thread, that equates to 33g dry weight.

I had a few cones like that with the leaves sprouting out too


managed to dry enough hallertau mittelfruh from my two plants to get 600g dried, quite pleased with that. Still got a small centennial to go, might get 100g dried from that one this year.

Finally picked my centennial earlier in the week. Managed about 600g dried of hallertau mittelfruh (2 plants) and 250g dried centenial (1 plant) which was a lot more than I expected, there was a lot of cones hiding from sight on that plant . I think I'll remove one hallertau plant next year, plant it somewhere wild and split the centennial so I can have more of it.

What weights did everyone else end up with?
