headmaster Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Where did you buy the rhizomes Waylon? I don't have any growing but would be keen, maybe not too late to plant a couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Chop Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I got mine which is one Cascade rhizome from gardenhops on ebay. It was, I thought it was pretty expensive including shipping but it is a really healthy looking rhizome about half an inch thick and 5 inches long, well packed when delivered and with many shoots popping off it. I plan to trim the sprouts down to the three strongest when they emerge, which wont be long I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiphile Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 ...and Waylon, I'm probably wrong here, but I thought pearl was a grain and perle was a hop. But I'm not going to put my gonads on the line for that one; besides, Brunhilda has them and I'm never likely to see them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
