Ill be building a contraption for this four site current culture h20 system.
Currently I'm deadest on brewing my own Scottish maple style ale.. I've never brewed beer, I've never grown hops either however I do understand botany and in theory know EXACTLY what this plant wants considering its relatives. Now...
Does anyone have experience with this? One thing I've been wondering is how will we continue these hops, there's no winter for them to sit in ground and chill.. Do I just go back to a early summer photo period and let it "revegetate" or is a dormancy period a necessity. Also a Q to anyone currently growing hops indoors where is over kill regarding PAR/lumens/watts? Does quality increase with wattage? And is there a oz-lb/watt average youve noticed in your system. Ill update as things progress ill be doing a rather unique screen of green for this system.
any recommendations on good hops to grow for this style please let me know. I'm more interested in "land race" hops but there doesn't really seem to be any. Personally long term I'd like to breed hops.
I'm definitely growing fuggle, that's about all I got so far.
