[THC] from Tom Hess Re Great Ferm hops purchase limits

[Brent Winter]

Unfortunately, I didnt see Linda's email concerning her Cascade Rhizomes 
until the day after I had already ordered hop rhizomes from 
www.freshops.com.  I have ordered from them before and had great success.  I 
dont live at the same house any longer so I have to replant.  I already have 
a Fuggles and I ordered a Cascade and a Hallertauer.  Looks like they are 
now currently out of Hallertauer now.  They hold the order until the proper 
planting time for our region of the country.
