Anymore Hop Rhizomes For Sale

[lastdrinks]

Looking forward to starting up a small hop garden this year at my my home. Hoping to pick up some Hallertau, goldings and columbus rhizomes. Is there anyone one out there that can spare some of those rhizomes? I am happyy to pay a fair price. PM me if anyone can help out, i am in melbourne and happy to pickup or deposit cash for mailed rhizomes. cheers

Also search for hopswest on ebay.

Have dealt with both before - no complaints.

In my experience, goldings is hard to grow in Aus, though you are a tad south of myself. For Hallertau I only have Hersbruker, and mine is very different to the German grown stuff, I mean entirely different, more like a lemon-citrus American hop. Columbus... this is another story, and will go gangbusters and give you roughly what you expect.

I apologise, but I doubt that I will be dividing my rhizomes this year.

I suggest that if you decide to get into the ebay hops, do so now, before the prices go ballistic (if they do this year).

I bought a Chinook rhizome off the goldings and columbus seller last year, very healthy, took off like a rocket once planted, didn't yield much though maybe 200g dry, hopefully get a lot more this year.

Thanks for the advice. now watching a few on ebay and emailed gil (thanks manticle) about his rhizomes as well. hopefully this will be the start of me growing my own finishing hops for UK, US and german beers. Well more precisely me growing my own hops, sort of like the original hops under aussie conditions.

Now to have a search for the best soil type to grow hops in.

Ebay, the for-sale forum here, and via HopCo are probably the best options for buying the rhizomes you're looking for.

Goldings grew well for me this year and I'd expect that Columbus would grow well here too. I'm not so sure about Hallertauer as mine did not crop well this year.

hey wolfy, i got more off my hallertau after i dug the whole thing out and it came back than i did in the last 3 years previously. i have heard that it did really well for some though.

Yeah i believe its directly through hopco. I had just emailed a few hop farms about rhizomes and he replied with the list of hops. So send them an email expressing interest in what hops you want and how many.

I would do it soonish so as not to miss out.

will be emailing these guys for sure i lost a bid on a cascade rhizome last night that ended up going for $65 plus $15 for postage, thought it was a bit of a rip

Given the prices and list above, there is no need to pay more on Ebay, the prices there can get way over inflated.

I spoke to Sandy at the Beer Expo on Friday and he mentioned that he'd be digging up his hop rhizomes as soon as he got home (today).
So if you were looking to get some hops from him, you might like to contact him sooner than later.
