Pruning hops

  • 0

If you want hop production you need to prune the amount of shoots or you will have a load of bines and foliage growth. Simply pick 3 or 4 of the strongest shoots and cut all the others down to the soil. The remaining shoots will now be your bines for training. This isn't recommended for new plants (first year plants benefit from being let loose).
