Hi all,
I have for the last two years attempted to propogate a Chinook rhizome in a pot, one each year. For some reason, both rhizomes have rotted out without so much as a shoot coming off.
Two different pots, two different houses, two different sources of dirt/potting mix etc.
I gave them a hit of Seasol after planting as suggested in many places to help with shock etc but after two months of no activity again this year I have uncovered the rhizome to find it soft and lifeless.
Any idea what else I can try next year? I'm not really concerned with actual harvest this season, I'd just like to get a plant established so I can get some hops from it in subsequent years!
Cheers and beers.
