    Hop plants/rhizomes - growing report

    So my 500g has dried to about 110g what to do next? Was thinking of adapting a Greg Hughes single hop recipe (4.7kg pale and 235g carapils) but use a known hop for bittering (probably magnum to 30 ibu). Assuming my hops are about 5% just split 20/20/50g for last 15/5/0 of the boil then last 20...

    Rhubarb, rhubarb......

    In West London - do they grow through the winter? Just assumed they died back and then sprouted up early next year. Yes the roots are coming out the bottom of the pots so will pot on asap.

    Hop plants/rhizomes - growing report

    Just harvested mine - 500g of a mixture of Fuggles and Brewers Gold (grew across each other so couldn't separate - have to work out new way to grow next year). Hope to get 100g once I've dried them - have to look for best way to do this. Then a brew.

    Hop plants/rhizomes - growing report

    They seems to be going well in the pots - ones about 2ft the other 1ft. Have cut them back to 4 bines each and set up about 12ft trellis (hope that is enough are suppose to be dwarf versions). Just training them up that at the moment. Think the worse issue I had last year was ensuring they got...

    Hop plants/rhizomes - growing report

    My two pots (a fuggles and a brewers gold) have both sprung up well. I top dresses the pots with some 6x fertiliser. Have to go back through the thread to see how to train them this year (just let the grow as the felt last year). Think it is cut back all but 3 or 4 runners?

    GrainFather v other systems.
