Or a plant not many hops so i dug up two roots and got home cut off all the bines no hops =( so anyway put roots in buckets with soil and the bines i cut up and put in beer bottles full of water with nutrients to clone them have i made a massive mistake digging them up too early or something like that?

if no hops were on the vine then they sound like ornamental ones no good for brewing

Sorry there was about 25 "little" ones i just went and had a look there are hops on it just really small will the water project work though?

Normally you dont dig up the rhizomes until after the crop has finished and should be in the new year feb time i think.

Thanks man i just asumed that maybe it didnt make a difference as there was only a very small havest so many more vines to pick tomorrow though saw soem big hops cones only about 10 or so but so many vines and i guess alot of roots so ill dig the rest up in january then its on unowned land so i geuss its legal for me to dig them up.
