Living in Brisbane and I have decided to give growing hops a go for the first time.
I purchased an assortment of rhizomes from here and ebay (Saaz, Tettnang, Golding, Hersbrucker, Cluster and Cascade). I put them all in the ground about 3 weeks ago and they all have their little hoppy heads poking through the mulch/cow poo especially the Golding which has about 4 shoots all about 3" tall.
After loads of reading and searching for the best way to grow hops I am stuck. What should I do? Should I cut them back so that they shoot later after any frosts or should I use a grow bag and protect the little beauties?
