Well it finally warmed up in Virginia and that means time to get out in the yard again. I moved into a 1800's home and discovered a hop plant growing on the side of the barn last summer. It's very well established and unfortunately last summer I didn't realize until august the it was there so it did not receive the care it needed, ie no water due to almost drought conditions. Still had a few cones and from the smell seemed to be an American c variety of some sort.
Ok my question is
How do I dig this bad boy up and divide and transplant without harming the plant?
My best friend is a horticulture major but has no experience with hop rhizomes, but he said I should be able to simply split the plant laterally across the heartiest part.
