Hi I am heading out west to BC in a couple weeks, I plan on picking up some hops and Rhizomes (spelling) from crannog farms while im there. I was talking to my dad about this, if he knew where it was etc. Anyways it turns out he has hops on his property/farm as well, there are wine grapes also so I assume at some point someone grew there own hops and grapes for wine and beer.
Ok to my point, is there a way to find out what variety of hops these are I am hopping they arent the type you see in nurseries or whatever. I am going to steal rhizomes off his plants aswell, too bad we werent going out in the summer/fall so I could take some actual hops also and test them out.
Anycase it would be cool to hear back from anybody regarding hop identification.
