BEST ANSWER:Hi Andy - As long as your roof is tall enough because they need lots of room for vertical growth, they grow about 1ft per day. Henry VIII referred to them as a "wicked weed" which indicated to me that they are very invasive and their tendrils will reach out for anything and choke without mercy. So just make sure they're in their own location and won't bother any of your other crops, and as long as they have the proper environmental factors (light, water, nutrients) they will thrive in your greenhouse. It's relatively nuanced to grow (hydroponic) hops in greenhouses. Check out: https://www.morebeer.com/articles/growing_hop_rhizomes for a complete guide on growing hops.

Hi Tyler, I live in the mountains of western North Carolina at about 2000 feet elevation. The green house roof and side walls are clear polycarbonate triple-wall 16mm sheets.. The building has concret floors and an automatic watering system along with 4- 1000 watt grow lamps which are on a timer. I have been growing orchids in the GH for about 10 years as a hobby.
The first year I harvested just under a pound of dry hops. This year they are established and doing very well. I am building a taller structure for them to reach the sky this year and hopefully increase my yield.
As soon as we got the kit we put the Rhyzomes in the ground and within a couple days they all popped up. It's been fun to check on them every day and see how quickly they're growing. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to grow some hops.
Hops started sprouting within three days and are growing! I built a trellis for the hop plants. Gonna wait until they are at least 6 inches tall before I plant them and start training them.
Arrived sooner than expected and well packaged. My wife and I have been wanting to grow our own hops for a while and this was an awesome kit to start off with. We planted them as soon as they arrived and excited to see after 2 weeks they are breaking the ground. Highly recommend
