Do hops have any animals - like rabbits - that like to eat them?

Thank you for your question. No plant or tree is completely rabbit-resistant, but hops would be a second or third choice for bunnies. It's not their favorite because they don't like the texture.

Can hops seeds be planted successfully?

Experts state that planting hops from clippings can be challenging but may be successful if planted immediately after harvest and with several healthy root nodes. Seeds, however, are normally not recommended but can be a fun technique to try

Character and acid 
Leavels?

I found a brewing source that says the centennial hops are quite high in alpha acids - they are often between 8 – 11 percent.

How can I propagate hops in my garden?

You should select a shoot with at least three pairs of leaves, snip out the middle leaves, bury the shoot in compost, and set aside and let it grow.

Can they be grown indoors?

We appreciate you reaching out to us. No, hops should not be grown inside. Their roots need too much room to spread out, and a container is just not large enough to support the growth. These are not small plants when they grow

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to reach back out to us. Have a great day!

Survived Dog attack
My hops had a rocky start due to attack of the dogs. I relocated my hops to a safer environment and just hoped that it survived. The growth on it is very healthy and has produced an abundance of the hops cone.

Small plant in a gallon container.
Obviously just stuck a small plant in a large container which did not grow up much before shipping it to me. Plant is healthy looking though.
