Isithombe sibonisa inkundla ye-hop ekhanyiswe yilanga ephila ngokucebile ngasekupheleni kwehlobo, equkethe izinhlobo ezimbili ze-hop ezidumile—i-Eastwell Golding ne-East Kent Golding—zimi ndawonye. Ukwakheka kugcizelela kokubili ukuvumelana nokugqama, kuveza ifa okwabelwana ngalo kanye nokwehlukana okucashile kwalezi zimila ezihlobene eduze. Ngaphambili, ama-hop bine athwetshulwa ngemininingwane ecacile, ngalinye libonisa iqoqo lezimbali eziluhlaza, ezimise okwekhoni ezilenga kahle eziqwini ezizacile. Amacembe awo agqagqene ezendlalelo zephepha, akhanyiswe ukukhanya okusagolide okufudumele okuthuthukisa ukuthungwa kwawo nokunyakaza kwemvelo. Amaqabunga, ansundu futhi anemithambo ejulile, asabalale ngaphandle anokukhanya okunempilo, okuluhlaza okotshani, aqedela isithombe esihle sokuphila.

Lezi zinhlobonhlobo ezimbili zihlukaniswa ngokucacile ngamalebula amhlophe abekwe ngokugqamile phansi kwezitshalo: "Eastwell Golding" kwesokunxele, kanye "East Kent Golding" kwesokudla. Lesi sengezo esilula siguqula isigameko sisuke esithombeni sokwelusa sibe ukwakheka okufundisayo, kugcizelela ukuqhathanisa nokufunda kwalawa mahops endaweni etshaliwe. Amacones ase-Eastwell Golding, amancane kancane futhi aminyene kakhulu, aqhathaniseka ngokucashile namacones ase-East Kent Golding, abonakala emide kakhulu futhi ehleleke kakhudlwana. Umehluko obonakalayo usemncane kodwa unengqondo, umema ukuhlolisiswa kanye nokwazisa kwezinhlobonhlobo eziqavile abaphisi botshwala nabalimi abazazisayo.

Indawo emaphakathi ikhombisa imigqa yamahops adlulela ensimini, ukuhleleka kwawo kukhuluma ngokutshalwa ngokucophelela kanye nobuchule ekugcineni lezi zinhlobonhlobo zamagugu. Izitshalo zikhula ngamandla zibheke phezulu, ukuminyana kwazo kwakha udonga oluluhlaza oluveza inala nokuzinikela kwezolimo. Amaqabunga ayahlangana ukuze enze i-canopy eyenziwe ngendlela ebamba ukukhanya okuguqukayo nesithunzi somoya ohelezayo, okuphakamisa ukunyakaza okuthambile ngaphakathi kohlaka olumile.

Ngemuva, isigameko siyashintsha sibe lufifi olulufifi. Imibala esagolide yamasimu akude neziqongo zezihlahla ihlangana ibe ukukhanya okufudumele, komkhathi, okudala ukujula nomongo wezitshalo ezihunyushwe ngokucijile ngaphambili. Lokhu kwendlaleka kudonsela iso lesibukeli emuva esihlokweni esiyinhloko—ama-cones anemininingwane ezinhlobonhlobo ezimbili ze-Golding—ngenkathi inikeza umuzwa wendawo nokuzwana ngaphakathi kwendawo ebanzi.

Isimo sengqondo esiphelele sesithombe siwukulinganisela, ubuchwepheshe, nokwazisa isiko. Ngokumatanisa i-Eastwell Golding kanye ne-East Kent Golding eceleni, isithombe sixoxa indaba yozalo namagugu esifunda, sibonisa ukuvela kokutshalwa kwe-hop eNgilandi. Ukukhanya okusagolide kugcwalisa indawo ngemfudumalo nenhlonipho, kuyilapho ukugxila okubukhali kumakhoni kugqamisa amandla okuphisa avalelwe phakathi kwembali ngayinye. Lesi sithombe esisamile sithinta kokubili ubuciko nesayensi yokulima kwe-hop, kanye nokubaluleka kwamasiko kwalawa ma-hops ayisakhiwo sodumo emlandweni wokwenza utshwala. Ifundisa futhi inkondlo, ihlanganisa ukucaciseleka kwezolimo nobuhle bemvelo.
