All good advice. If you are the gardening type, I've taken cuttings and layers pretty easily from hops so that you can have more plants.

I'd try it RummerMan if I were you. Growing them is not complex at all. I grow a good load these days. They are not easy to assess in terms of alpha acids but for late additions to the brew for flavour and nose they are the best. Do it.

Might go to sniff some Chinook to deaden the pain. Me, a name I call myself......

I think you are speaking for all of us. edelweiss...edelweiss...

I'm close to tears

Help. Let me out.

I suspect I can fit in here. I can do left or right wing nut job, depending on the weather.

Just watch. No doubt I'll get an infestation this year. Serve me right for being too confident.

I feel your pain.

Don't give up Blackregent. Cured my greenfly problem by being a bit less kind to greenhouse crops. Lots of feeding = lots of green leafy growth =tasty greenfly lunch. Being slightly meaner pushes forward flowering and fruiting.

Of course you can ask. I've been reading this forum for a while now, mainly stealing ideas from better brewers than me. I thought I might get involved... Been brewing a good while. Still not sure I know what I'm doing however.

I thank you. What shall I brew then...

Hmm. Thanks b8

Apparently, I've joined this forum. I'm sure it will end in tears.
