Hi all,
I was lucky enough to have a fellow brewer give me some rhizomes last year and they are now growing like crazy. The only problem is one of my sister's kids kindly yanked out some of the stakes I had in the pots with the hop varieties labelled on them! :angry:
So now I have two varieties that are either Cluster or Victoria, but I don't know which way around they are! Having looked at some of the previous pics of people's hop plants I think the one with the more pronounced "three pronged" leaf is cluster, which would make the plant with the "fuller" looking leaf Victoria.
I was hoping one of the brewers here could help me identify the varieties based on the leaf shape. I have some pics below of the leaves on the two plants.
Cheers,
T.D. :beer:
