I have a First Gold in a pot if you're interested - not strictly a basic bittering hop I suppose. It was taken as a cutting last year and has a couple of buds at the moment. Probably best to treat as a first year hop. I'm in Sheffield too.iann41 wrote:i've got a progress hop plant for swaps if anyone is interested. i was given it as a cutting 2 years back and its still potted up in a 12" pot.

Re: Hop cutting swaps
Just a bit of advice, you may want to wait a couple of months before you start taking cuttings, at least let a few shoots grow first.
