Hey Hunter all grainers
, just thought I'd offer rather than throw them out.
I planted 3 varieties of hops at the back end of last winter and subsequently they have grown heaps and I have surplus rhizomes to my needs for the coming spring. If anyone would like rhizomes I have them available. No charge maybe just a bottle or two of your finest on tap at the moment.
Anyway I live at Waratah so pm me if you want any I have about 10 to give away.
I currently have
Columbus, Goldings and Cluster
They didn't do brilliantly first year. There was enough for 1 30L batch ( I got 280g) in total but when wet you divide by 4t.
Apparently the yield doubles every year for the first 3. Also I'm not amazing at the whole cutting of the rhizomes so won't make any promises as to guarenteed crop.
And as a side note, I know this definately isn't optimal growing conditions as far as latitude goes but I thought it would be fun and I got to brew a wet hop ale.
Pick up only, who know you might even get a beer out of me, no good drinking alone.
