All rhizome sales final. No refunds. Because rhizomes are a living agricultural product we will not refund any rhizomes that do not grow. Farmers plan for unsuccessful rhizomes by planting 3-5 rhizomes together in a single planting to make sure that at least one grows. Please read below for more tips and tricks.

How to Grow Your Own Hops:

  1. Store hop rhizomes in an open bag somewhere dark and cool until ready to plant.
  2. Find a good sunny spot with as much sun as possible and plenty of room to grow vertically.
  3. Plant 3 rhizomes together per hill, slightly at an angle, with any eyes pointed up.
  4. Plant hills at least 3 feet apart to make sure there is ample space and good drainage.
  5. Water sparingly until the first shoots break through.
  6. The first sprouts to break through are called 'bull shoots' and are usually trimmed or cut back.
  7. Wait until the new shoots are 1-2 feet tall and then train them clockwise around the twine. Train 3 shoots per string.
  8. Continue to water sparingly and feed with NPK as needed.
  9. Harvest your homegrown hops when the lupulin glands are bright orange and the cones feel slightly papery (as opposed to waxy).

Hop Rhizome FAQs:

Q: How do I grow my own hops?
A: Growing your own hops at home is easy! Read this blog article for a complete guide on how to grow your own hops.

Q: Is it ok that my hop rhizomes have white mold on them?
A: Yes. Soft, white mold is common and a sign of a healthy rhizome. Black, slippery mold is no good and the affected portion should be cut away.

Q: How should I store my hop rhizomes before planting?
A: Store the rhizomes somewhere dark and cold. Don't freeze and don't seal completely in a plastic bag as they still need some airflow. They do need to stay moist, but do not like being soaked.

Q: How many hop rhizomes should I plant in a single hill?
A: 3 rhizomes go in one planting or hill. Farmers plant three rhizomes together like this to ensure that at least one will grow per mound.

Q: How long can I store my hop rhizomes before they need to be planted?
A: Stored properly and they will keep for many months. Their eyes might slowly grow during this time, but as long as they aren't soaking in water they will be happy.

Q: Can I get my hop rhizomes started in pots before planting outside?
A: Sure! Hop rhizomes do grow very quickly though so be warned. They only need a week or two to sprout and break through the soil and will need something to grow up. The bines can grow inches in a day so they might get out of control quickly.

Q: What hops grow the best in my area?
A: This is a complex question that is usually best answered by someone in your area. But in general Cascade rhizomes will grow and flourish in almost any climate. For more specific advice, please reach out to a master gardener, university, or someone growing hops in your area.

Q: Do we sell hop seeds?
A: Short answer is no, we do not sell hop seeds. Female hop plants do produce seeds if pollinated by a male, but seeds will be genetically different. In order to preserve the genetics of the variety, root cuttings, or rhizomes are taken from established female hop plants and used to propagate more plants.

Q: The rhizomes I received are small, should I be worried?

A: The size of rhizomes can range from as fat as a thumb to as skinny as a pencil. The size of the rhizome is not necessarily indicative of its health and vigor so don't be put off by a skinny rhizome. As long as your rhizome is not dried out and shriveled up, it will do just fine.

Q: Where can hop rhizomes be shipped?

A: Because rhizomes are living plant material they can only be shipped domestically in the US. Also, we are unable to ship rhizomes to AK, HI, ID.
