Cultivation the strawberries

Strawberry varieties vary greatly in size, color, flavor, shape, degree of fertility, season of ripening, disease susceptibility, plant establishment. Some vary in foliage, in the relative development of their sexual organs. In many cases, hermaphroditic flowers appear in structure but operated so as male or female. In commercial production, plants are propagated by industry, and both are generally distributed in small pots or bare root. Cultivation follows one or two models, annual plasticulture or a perennial system of rows or mounds. A small amount of strawberries produced in greenhouses during the low season. Most modern commercial production uses the plasticulture system. In this method, rooted beds are formed each year and covered with black plastic, which prevents weed growth and erosion, under which runs the irrigation tubing. Plants, usually obtained from greenhouses, planted in holes made at the time. The branches of the plants are started to appear, to let more energy to plants to fruit development. At the end of the harvest season, the plastic is removed and the plants are placed in the ground. Because plants more than a year or two begin to decline in productivity and fruit quality, this system of replacing plants each year allows for improved yields and planting density. However, due to require a larger growing season to allow plants to establish each year, and increased costs in terms of training and purchase coverage and plants each year, is not always practical for all areas. The other method is to keep them more plants from year to year. The outbreaks would be sufficient to established plants rooted in the soil adjacent to the plants, which should be maintained, light and thin, or small pots for put in root. While not occur a few leaves on each shoot secondary cut. And to be well rooted transplanted. Best is a silty soil, very wet. The soil depth of 5-10 dm, with good compost, with a considerable part well near the roots, 25-30 cm of the surface. The plants are separated from each other 5-6 dm.
