A friend of mine has 4 laying hens. He gets 2-3 dozen eggs a week. What the fuck does one person need that many eggs for? Whenever he tries to give me a dozen I decline. Call me a prude, but I get grossed out by the chicken shit that’s covering the shells. A few weeks ago I cracked one and it was completely rotten. God knows, it had probably become buried in the hay and sat there in the summer heat for weeks before he found it.
For all the time, money, food, hay, cleaning, etc, just buy a dozen organic eggs a week.
Centennial is a relative of Cascade, with a higher Alpha Acid percentage. Like many Hop varieties, it came from the Oregon State University Hop research program in Oregon. A guy named Al used to be the Big Cheese there and I met him a couple times. Nice fellow.
Man, people all hopped up on hops these days. too much hops I say! A good balance and right choice of hops is key. Less bitter, tastes great! And you don't need your beer to last all the way to India any more.
Some Colorado brewers I knew made a bunch of test-batches when they were starting out to compare Hop flavors / aromas. Mash out 50 gallons of wort and boil each 5-gallon brew with one Hop variety to same IBU level. Then they could compare each flavor / aroma to see what they liked.
It worked out for them doing all that research and they became the famous 'Left Hand Brewing'.

A couple of years ago a tenant planted hops along the side of a structure. They were cool looking at times.
I took the structure down this past Spring. It took forever to dig out the hops. Those 4 little shoots she had planted turned into a thicket.

I'm assuming that Eroica Hops are used but could not find confirmation on that.

There's some links that might tell you more Hop stuff.
Hops are easy to grow, and being Vines, like to climb on stuff: walls, trellises, strings...
The main problems are Aphids, Downy mildew & Powdery mildew. Those shiny Japanese beetles attack mine regularly, but they still flower.
