Title: Hop Rhizome Cuttings
Post by: BrewBilly on February 15, 2014, 03:19:19 PM
Hey Guys

Do any of you have any cuttings going this year, I am looking for Cascade particularly, but not actually fussy.

Cheers
Andy

Hi Brewbilly

Afraid I don't have any but I am putting an order in at the end of the month if you want me to get a few extra (providing you don't get any in the meantime)?

Cheers,
Paddy

Guys, the  weather has been so bad I doubt anyone has even looked at their hops but there will be some cuttings knocking around when things improve I would think.

Thanks Paddy, I am just keen to see if there are cuttings about in the club before buying.

Rossa - I guess weather is a big factor at the moment, I will keep on asking around.

Cheers
Andy

I have cuttings which are viable.
They're either fuggles or cascade, not entirely sure.
They were in poor soil and a bit root bound so didn't crop well last year.
I repotted yesterday and have some spare.
I could bag and post if you cover postage.
PM me
