When conditions favour it in Kraków

Hours in an average month when conditions meet every threshold this disease declares (2021–2025). Faded bars are months the database does not list the problem as active.

This disease's thresholds: 15–25°C · humidity ≥85% · wet leaves / rain. Every hour in the archive was tested against them.

These come from the ERA5 reanalysis on a roughly 9 km grid, so they describe the area rather than your plot. A shaded, sheltered corner holds leaf wetness longer than open ground, so conditions there can favour it more often than the figure suggests. This is a climate profile, not a forecast — the panel above carries the current risk.

How this compares

Of the 13 locations published here, Kraków ranks 5 for hours favouring this disease in a year.

Watch it before you act

At this level the damage rarely costs the crop. Note the date, check twice a week, and act only if it reaches new growth or the weather turns favourable for it.

Scout the planting while temperatures hold between 15°C and 25°C, with humidity above 85%, after rain or heavy dew, while the leaves are still wet. Risk builds after roughly 10 unbroken hours of those conditions, so the morning after such a night is the moment to look.

Rain and irrigation splash. Water splashing off soil and infected leaves carries it upward and along the row. Watering at the base and mulching the soil surface break the route.
