What if the stems and petals of the latest strawberries turn red?

When it comes to strawberries, many people may be drooling silently, it can be said that strawberries are really a very attractive fruit. At present, more and more strawberries are planted in the greenhouse in the market, so many growers are consulting, what is the reason why the stalks and petals of strawberries are red, are they sick? What are we going to do? So let the editor answer this question for you today.

1. The reason for the redness of strawberry stalks.

If the stems of strawberries turn red, there are many reasons for it. First of all, it may be due to the low winter temperature and low phosphorus absorption rate, resulting in the transport of nutrients in strawberry leaves, the final production of anthocyanins, the stem turned red. Secondly, with the growth of strawberry planting years, relatively aging stems and leaves will also appear red phenomenon, which is a normal natural weakening phenomenon. In addition, in the process of planting, the field management work such as watering and fertilization and loosening the soil are not in place, which will also cause strawberry stalks to turn red. Finally, the planting conditions are not suitable in time, such as too high or low planting temperature, too high or too low humidity, poor soil permeability, poor drainage and so on, which will affect the normal growth of strawberries and red stems.

2. The reason for the redness of strawberry petals

The redness of strawberry petals is mainly caused by two reasons. the first reason is that the flowering period of strawberries coincides with low temperature weather, and under this condition, the content of anthocyanins will increase, so the petals we see will appear red, sometimes even purplish red. If there is no timely temperature control, then the phenomenon of foliage curling and death may occur. The second reason is the precursor of powdery mildew and Botrytis cinerea. When the humidity in the field is too high, it can also cause the petals of strawberries to turn red and affect the growth of young fruits. If the disease worsens, it will seriously affect the yield and quality of strawberries and make it lose its economic value.

3. Prevention and control methods

Although the early stage of strawberry stalk and petal redness has little impact on strawberry itself, if it is not prevented in time, then the loss to growers is very great. In general, when this phenomenon occurs in strawberry orchards, we need to strengthen field management and make reasonable adjustments to temperature, humidity, permeability and so on. When necessary, you can use the right amount of Dilwang and Wofengsu to spray. There is the need to prevent gray mold and powdery mildew when petals turn red at flowering stage, so you need to use beautiful fruit mixed with appropriate amount of garlic oil to prevent and cure.

If strawberries show redness of stems or petals during their growth, we first need to make a comprehensive analysis according to the seasonal time, location and causes, so as to effectively prevent the occurrence of diseases and stop loss in time.
