The nemesis of all hop growers.

Downy mildew is still causing trouble in numerous areas. Basal spikes are still appearing and new growth is beginning to develop into terminal spikes as a result of shoot infections. Removing the lower growth (leaves and shoots) post training after the plants are 8-10 feet in height will help increase airflow, reduce humidity and water retention, and help divert nutrients to the trained growth.

These practices will help to alleviate the damage caused by hop downy mildew but will not replace a fungicide program or cultivar selection which will also reduce the incidence and severity of hop downy mildew.

Pictured below are both basal and terminal spikes developing on the same plant. Note the shortened, chlorotic-looking growth on shoots distributed on the left side of the photo.
