Quote from: "Thomas"
I was going to order some rhizomes from hopsdirect, but they wont ship to Canada. You still got some rhizomes to give away Brian?


I do as I haven't gotten around to root pruning yet.  I'll update with quantities.

As for those still looking to buy you can try http://www.crannogales.com/site/rhizomes.php but its getting late.

After Last year's unmitigated disaster, resulting in the following survivors...
2 Cascade, 0 Centennial, 1 Fuggle, 2 Magnum, 2 Nugget and 1 Willamette out of 36 planted.

I ordered the following...

2 Cascade, 3 Fuggle, 2 Nugget, 3 Willamette, 2 Chinook and 2 Galena.

Rebecca has also put me on the list for some Centennial and Magnum if they get more than anticipated.

Gonna start in pots this year, which is what we ended up reverting to during the Monsoons of April and May last year, then transfer to the ground afterwards.

hops in pots ftw! Mine were all grown in 4 gal pots last year using 50/50 coconut potting soil and organic compost. I planted them early May, and kept them inside until early June sometime (whenever the last frost warning was). By keeping careful attention to watering, and giving them timed additions of Miracle Grow, I managed to get ~1/2 lb of wet cones from each of my first year plants.

After moving the pots inside last week (they were overwintering on the deck) one of them has already shot up 10-14 shoots, some of which are almost 4-6 inches high already!

OK, so I pruned my Cascade, Nugget and Willametts last weekend and will be sending a grab bag to the AGM for anyone interested.  Call it a perk of being a member.

For anyone who talked to me directly please let me know if you don't get what you wanted at the AGM and I can prune the little buggers a bit more.

Merry hopmas to one and all.

Crap x 3!  Brian was suppoed to send me up with the rhizomes and we both forgot...he brought them to work and they are still there in the fridge.   There is a good chance i'll be coming up again next weekend and if so i'll bring them up with me.

Sorry guys

If there are any spare (I understand I may have totally missed the boat) I would be very interested in getting a couple of whatever going. Are they all spoken for?

I should have posted this a month or so ago, but in case it is of interest to anybody here goes....

*** U-cut hops rhizomes, FOR SALE OR TRADE for S-189 yeast, good beer, $$$, etc...

I am located in Keswick Ridge; my hopyard is in a sad state of neglect but I have several varieties (incl Galena, Fuggles, EKG, Willamette, Cascade) which should provide extremely healthy and vigourous cuttings.  No reasonable offers refused!  Please contact me by email dmc@danielchisholm.com
