Hop Rhizomes
Re: Hop Rhizomes
I'd love to take a few of these off your hands, but I'm moving in about 2 months so it wouldn't be worth planting them where I currently live. How long will these keep out of the ground? Could I plant them in a pot then transfer to the garden later?
Re: Hop Rhizomes
They'll probably be fine in a moist bag in a fridge for a week or two; some people overwinter them in a fridge.
At this time of year I'd expect they'd do better in a temporary pot to get their roots going.
Moving them in 2 months time may mean they don't grow too much this year, but they should stay alive.
If you're interested PM me and I'll get back with address etc.

Re: Hop Rhizomes
Excellent thanks. Managed to find the time to plant them in pots. It'll be an interesting experiment if nothing else. Let you know how it goes.
