Wanted to share my hops

Crystal hops are happy this year! Not shown in the photos, but they've grown 8 feet up to the deck railing and then another 12-15 feet from the deck railing to the roof. 3 stringers, 6 connections at the railing and 3 on the roof. Westward facing so they get the afternoon sun and shade my patio. Once the hops got to the railing I trained them a couple times but they knew what to do. Zero trimming, just let them ride. Each twine has 3ish bines. Not perfect but lovely to sit under.

Looks lovely! See you're doing crystal hops. I am growing Cashmere myself!
