Title: Hop Rhizomes to buy
Post by: Inky on March 22, 2018, 11:08:46 PM
Hey,
Just wondering if anyone knew where's the best place to buy some hop plants? I'm hoping to grow some this year just don't know where to get them or is there a specific window to buy/plant them?
Cheers,

Its a bit late for this season as spring in here.
However if you got some and got them in the ground you would have a good start on next year.
All you need is a cutting from the rhizome/root of your preferred variety.

I've got some I need to dig up or at least rein in if you want to pick up in Raheny. I've got Fuggles, Challenger, Hallertau aroma / Wakatu, Cascade
