Hop Rhizomes

Apr 13, 2010

I purchased some hop rhizomes from my local brewing shop. I got Cascade and Magnum. Which are supposed to be two varieties that are both hardy and popular for beer recipes. For once the layout of my yard is really working to my advantage. I have a side of the house that faces south without anything else going on over there. I followed their instructions for planting and they should be ready to grow up some twine to my roof line.

    I planted mine also. Next year I am looking at probably getting 3-6 more different varieties. I don’t see much point in getting more than one kind of each since you can start cutting roots for growing after the second to third year.

    I would like to have a wide range when I start doing all grain recipes.

    I love hearing about what you are doing!
