Isithombe: I-Macro Shot ye-Sterling Hops

Isithombe sithwebula ama-Sterling hops ngendlela ecishe ihlonipheke, sigqamisa ubuhle bawo bemvelo kanye nobunkimbinkimbi obufihliwe ngaphakathi kwekhoni ngayinye. Uma uthi nhlá, umbukeli udonswa embalini ye-hop emaphakathi, efakwe ukukhanya kwemvelo okuthambile, okusabalele okugqamisa ama-bract agqagqene, isikali ngasinye esifana ne-petal sigoqeka ngaphandle ngokunemba okuthule. Umbala wazo oluhlaza okotshani ophaphathekile uphethe isiphakamiso esincane kakhulu segolide, i-tint ecashile efudumele ebonisa amafutha anenhlaka nezindlala ze-lupulin ezifakwe ngaphakathi. Lo mbala omncane osagolide awubonakali nje—uphakamisa ukuvuthwa, ukulungela, kanye nesikhathi lapho i-cone ibamba amandla ayo aphezulu kakhulu okuphuza. Ukukhanyisa kwenza okungaphezu kokukhanyisa; iphulula ama-cones, idale ukusebenzisana okuthambile kwezithombe ezinhle kakhulu nezithunzi ezinikeza ikhwalithi eqoshiwe ku-hop.

Ukujula kwenkundla okungajulile kuthuthukisa lo mphumela, kuvumela i-cone ephambili ukuthi ivele ngokucacile, okucacile okuningiliziwe kuyilapho ama-hops azungezile efiphala kancane ngemuva. Lokhu kukhethwa okubukwayo kubonisa umbono womthengisi: lapho ukhetha ama-hops for iphunga noma ukunambitheka, ukunaka kudonswa emininingwaneni emincane kakhulu—ukuqina kwekhoni, i-powdery lupulin ngaphakathi, ukunamathela kancane okubonisa okuqukethwe kukawoyela okuphezulu. Ingemuva elilufifi liqinisa umqondo wokugxila kanye nokuba munye, likhuthaze umbukeli ukuthi ame kancane futhi acabange lokho okuvame ukubukwa okwesikhashana phakathi nokuvuna. Akusona nje isithombe sesitshalo kodwa isithombe sesithako esisenhliziyweni yesiko lokuphisa.

I-Sterling hops, ikakhulukazi, iphethe ifa isithombe esibonakala silihlonipha. Ezaziwa ngokulinganisela kwazo okuthambile kwemithi, izimbali, nezinongo, zivame ukuchazwa njengebhuloho eliphakathi kwe-Old World noble hops kanye nezinhlobonhlobo ezikhanyayo, ezicacile kakhulu ezithandwa kakhulu ekuphuzweni kwesimanje kwaseMelika. Ngale ndlela, izigaxa ngokwazo zifanekisela ukuqhubeka, isiko, nokuhlola konke ngesikhathi esisodwa. Imininingwane yombhalo emihle ebonakala kuma-bracts ayisikiseli nje kuphela ubuthakathaka bawo bomzimba kodwa futhi nokuhluka okulethayo ekukhiqizeni utshwala. Uma iphonswa eketelani noma yengezwa sekwephuzile inqubo yokuphisa, ama-Sterling hop abolekisa izendlalelo ezicashile: amahemuhemu omhlaba ahlanganiswe nomphetho wewolintshi, izinkomba zobumnandi bezimbali obulingana nezinongo. Isithombe sithwebula lokhu okubili, ingaphandle lekhoni elivinjiwe elifihle ingaphakathi eligcwele uwoyela, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, azoguqula i-wort ibe ubhiya.

Ukwakheka kuzwakala kuzindla, ngisho nokuzindla. Ngokubeka ama-cones phakathi nendawo nokugcwalisa ifremu nge-organic geometry yawo, isithombe sidlulisa ukubaluleka kwama-hops hhayi njengemikhiqizo yezolimo nje kuphela kodwa njengama-ejenti abalulekile oshintsho. Ukuphindaphinda kwezikali zazo ezigqagqene kudala isigqi esizwakala cishe esomculo, ilungiselelo lamaphethini emvelo elibukisa indlela abaphisi botshwala abahleleka ngayo abawubekela ubuciko babo. Ama-hop cones abukeka elenga elenga ngesikhathi sokuthula, abanjwe phakathi kwepulazi negedlela lotshwala, ethwele isithembiso sezinongo ezisazovulwa.

Kukhona nekhwalithi ethintekayo esithombeni. Ama-ridge amahle kanye nokuthungwa kwephepha kwama-bracts kuthathwe ngokunembile kangangokuthi umuntu angacishe ezwe ukuhwaqeka kwawo okuncane, cabanga ukunamathela kancane kwe-lupulin eminweni ngemva kokuchoboza ikhoni. Lesi simemo sezinzwa sisikhumbuza ukuthi ukuphuza utshwala akusona nje isenzo sesayensi nesiko kodwa futhi kuwukuthinta, ukuhogela, nokuxhumana okuqondile nezithako ezingavuthiwe. Ikhoni ngayinye ohlakeni imele amahora amaningi okulima, ukunakekelwa kwe-trellising ngokucophelela, izinsuku ezikhanyiswe yilanga, nobusuku obupholile obuhlanganisa ukukhula kwazo.

Ekugcineni, lokhu kuvalwa kwe-Sterling hops kusebenza ngaphezu kocwaningo lwesayensi yezitshalo—kuwukuzindla ngalokho okungase kube khona. Kudonsela ukunaka esikhathini esingaphambi kwenguquko, lapho izigaxa zisalenga, izimfihlo zazo zivalelwe ngaphakathi kwezikali eziluhlaza ezithambile. Uma sebekhethiwe, bomisiwe, futhi baphiswa, umlingisi wabo uzoqhubeka ephila kubhiya, enikeza umunyu ongathandeki nomusa onephunga elimnandi aziswa ngawo ama-Sterling hop. Lesi sithombe, ekucaceni kwaso nokusondelana, sisikhumbuza ukuthi ngemuva kwayo yonke ipeyinti likabhiya kukhona ubuhle obuthule, obuyinkimbinkimbi be-hop cone, ethathwe lapha isesimweni sayo esimsulwa, ilinde ukufeza indima yayo komunye wemisebenzi yezandla endala nethandwa kakhulu ebantwini.
