Growing Note: Hops grown from seed will produce both male and female plants. Once the plants begin to flower, it’s important to identify and remove the males, keeping only the females, as only female plants produce the hop cones used for brewing and other purposes.

In contrast, female plants develop the familiar cone-shaped flowers that are harvested as hops.
