I have finally taken the plunge into growing my own hops at home. On the weekend I planted two Pride of Ringwood rhizomes in pots and can’t wait to see them grow! To be honest, it is more for the novelty value at the moment but who knows….will post some pictures later when they start to take off.
20 September 2009 – Woo hoo rhizomes have sprouted and we’re away! Here is a picture of the largest shoot.

13 October 2009 – Ok were are starting to see some growth now! I have built three wires up to the roof of the house, and one of the bines has taken off up one of them. I have been watering every few days and fertilised a couple of days ago as well.
