    A good place in Ottawa to get good beer.

    Pub Italia on Preston St. has its own Beer Bible. Literally hundreds of beers, including genuine Trappist Beers. You can view the beer listing online! If you're looking for the best selection, that's the place.

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Bud/end nipping technique for bushy growth?

    The tip of the plant is where the meristematic cells are and has apical dominance over any other areas of growth on the plant. If you take away this area, the rest of the plant gets more energy and will grow instead. I don't have much experience with hops (my first year growing) but I have a...
