When a hop is ready to be harvested, how long can you leave them on the bine before cutting?
I have 3 varietals of hops (cascade centennial, & magnum). My goal of growing these hops was not necessarily to dry and store them, but rather to make a really nice wet hop IPA once a year.
My dilemma is that I imagine these three plants will not be ripe at the same time so how long can ripe hops stay on the bine until they start to go bad?
