Hops

''This is a page for the ingredient used in making ales. For the drunk involved in the quest Biohazard quest, see Hops (NPC).''

Hops can be used to make different types of beers and ales with the Cooking skill. Hop seeds are planted in a hops patch by using 4 hop seeds (only 3 Jute seeds) on the patch with a seed dibber in the player's inventory. Hops need to be watered during its growing cycle. Harvesting yields between 3 and 29 hops and is done with a spade in the player's inventory. After a hops patch has been harvested, it will become cleared which will require the patch to be re-planted. Hops on average give less experience in planting and harvesting than allotments; however, they are not nearly as susceptible to disease as allotments. Hops patch do not a have a compost bin nearby but do have a Tool Leprechaun.

Hop seeds
Each patch requires four seeds of the same type to begin growing with the exception of Jute seeds which requires only three.


 * 4x10 means: every 10 minutes the crop has grown a little and can be watered again. This happens 4 times until it is fully grown.
