Hi all,
I have to move home pretty soon and am in a bit of a predicament with my hop plants (Chinook and Cascade), both of which are in pot plants.
Firstly, the Chinook primed pretty early and I picked the last of the cones this morning (there is only a handful of green ones left). Would I harm the plant in any way if I cut it down, leaving around one foot of the bine left from the base.
My cascade however is still a long way from harvesting. Has anyone had to move a fully grown plant before and have some wise words of advice? I have trained it up some string, so am hoping I can kind of coil it up for transport. However, I can see this in me just snapping the bine.
This is the plants first year, so if worst comes to worst I'll just trim them both down and wait fit next year.
Cheers.
