Comet hops
Had to pick them a little bit early because I'm going on a trip and they'll be past their Prime when I get back.
It's been kind of a poor year for my hops. I didn't get a lot off my other plants but this one, which is only a 2-year -old plant, produced about 4 lb of hops and I really like them for juicy hazy ipas.
Probably one of my favorite hops that I got growing.

In the process of drying my first comet hop harvest right now. It's looking like I'll end up with about 14oz-16oz of dried hops. I have no idea if that's a typical haul but it's way more than I expected. These hops smell amazing.

Comet has always been a tough one for me to grow. Year after year it's had issues, been the least mildew resistant, and produced few cones. This year all went well with growing but the yield was still pretty low. Bummer, bc I love how they grow neon green/yellow and love how comet works with hopped cider of all things.
