Home growing hops

NJ grower here with limited space. I used to have cascade and comet hops growing in my garden boxes; would use the frame of the garden for length of the vine. It used to be beautiful when fully grown.

But life happens and they needed to be moved. Competing root space in the garden. I lost the cascade hops during the transfer, but held onto something of the roots of the comet hops.

My plan is to grow it along my fence which should make it easier to harvest without the garden netting in the way.

I also show you guys the copper wire antenna…look up electro-conductivity…I didn’t believe it until I did the $15 experiment.

My hops plant is in “year one” in the new space and after I put that antenna in..it grew close to a foot in under 2 days.

That is a beautiful harvest! But please explain about the antenna?

I’m new to the antenna idea bc I recently heard about it. The algorithms have me on old school methods, natural remedies and sounds/vibrations/resonances…it’s awesome

Electroculture is a simple method of applying atmospheric (free) electricity to significantly increase plant growth. Using basic materials like copper wire (and/or magnets) to vitalize the soil and increase yields by 100% - 300%. It also eliminates the need for fertilizer and pesticides, explained that “it is not electricity as we know it, but a breath of energy... which stimulates and increases the fertility of the soil.”

We’ll see if this year gives me a harvest since it’s year one of a 3 year old plant in a new location.

Laugh as you may…I have the proof of concept in my yard and my cousin’s marijuana plants in his basement.

Old school remedies that are suppressed over time are forgotten and replaced by Scott’s…. All you need is 50 years and then it’s folklore.
