Post this on the nationalhomebrewclub.com forum. Several members grow their own hops (me included) and can sort you out with rhizomes in exchange for a bottle of homebrew!

Anyone ever tried growing from cuttings? I've had some success with this. I know you're not supposed to use rooting hormone with consumables but it's going to be over a year before you actually take anything from it so what harm. Just think it could be more economical and quicker!
