How to grow strawberries in the open air

It is best to choose to plant in slightly acidic soil with loose soil and high content of organic matter. Weeds must be removed and more fertilizer must be applied before planting. After planting strawberry seedlings, we should irrigate and replenish water in time. When most of the strawberry buds are formed, it is necessary to apply quick-acting fertilizer and remove the excess and dry leaves in time.

1. Parcel selection

Strawberry has the characteristics of low drought tolerance and waterlogging tolerance. To plant strawberries in relatively high terrain, they should be planted in soil with certain acidity to ensure that the soil pH value is between 6.0 and 7.0. When planting strawberries, weeds must be cleared in advance and more fertilizer must be applied.

2. Seedling planting

When selecting seedlings, we should ensure that they are of appropriate size, good production environment, and free from diseases and insect pests. In the process of digging seedlings, we should carry an appropriate amount of soil, plant strawberries in time, control the planting time of strawberries, and irrigate strawberries in time to avoid the death of strawberry seedlings.

3. Field management

Before entering winter, it is necessary to ensure adequate fertilization to meet the needs of strawberry planting in winter and prevent strawberry production from being reduced due to lack of nutrients. When most of the strawberry buds are formed, apply quick-acting fertilizer to promote the absorption of fertilizer by strawberries. In the growth of strawberries, the excess and dry leaves should be removed in time.
