Soilless cultivation techniques of Strawberry

Strawberries can be grown not only in soil, but also in soilless culture. Today, let's take a brief look at the techniques of soilless cultivation of strawberries.

Soilless cultivation techniques of Strawberry

1. Choose the form of trough planting or bag planting. The trough body with a width of 80-100cm and a depth of 10-12cm was selected with vermiculite and sand as the substrate. Bag planting with peat soil as the substrate, packed with nylon bags, punched above, put flat on the ground, each hole planted a strawberry.

2. The culture medium is mainly composed of calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, magnesium sulfate and other trace elements, mixed with water and added to the liquid storage tank.

3. The selected strawberry varieties should have shallow dormancy, high quality, high and stable yield, such as Fengxiang, Mingbao and so on.

4. The seedlings can be obtained from the mother plant for cultivation, or the plastic container containing the substrate can be used. When the seedlings are extracted and rooted, they are artificially introduced to the container, and the seedlings in the container are cultivated by intermittent stolons after taking root.

5. When the seedling has 4 leaves, it can be planted and cultivated.

6. the number of times of plant growing to fruit can be increased when the nutrient solution is used twice a day at the seedling stage.

7. The temperature of strawberry cultivation should be kept at about 25 ℃ during the day, and the lowest at night should not be lower than 5 ℃.

8. Strawberry plants cultivated in soilless culture should also carry out the process of thinning flowers and picking old leaves to improve fruit quality. Artificial pollination is also needed at flowering stage to improve pollination rate and fruit setting rate.

9. After the plant bears fruit, the stolon can be replanted as a new plant.

About strawberry soilless cultivation technology can only be briefly introduced here, if you need practical operation, it is appropriate to consult the relevant people.
