The long term average of rainfalls was in this month markedly higher then usually. On 30th June 2010 was measured the highest number of rainfalls, it was measured 38,2 mm. The rainfalls had an storm character so it rained just on the small area around Zatec. This storm was accompanied with the hail-storm, which destroyed approximately 15 ha of hopgardens, out of these were destroyed approx. 7,5 ha of variety Saaz and 7,5 ha of variety Sladek and Premiant.

2. Vegetation development


Colder weather broke the growth of the hops. Approximately 40 % the growth of the hops grew up to the top of hopgardens constuction. The rest of the hops growth grew 1 – 2 m under the top of hopgardens construction. The growth of the twig of hops is good. The growth of the hops is relative in a good condition, due to the course weather.

3. Pests and diseases


Appearance of downy mildew of hops responded to climate. Continuously we treat the growth of the hops against downy mildew of hops, aphides and some of the hopgardens area were treated against red spider mite.
