Planting techniques of Strawberry

Strawberry is a common fruit in our life, which has high economic value and ornamental value. Strawberry is very popular in the market, and the planting area of strawberry in our country is increasing every year. So how to grow strawberries? Let's take a look at strawberry planting techniques.

1. Land selection and fertilization

Because the root system of strawberry is shallow, so the demand for soil is higher, so we should choose loose, fertile and flat land for planting. Soil preparation should be carried out in the first half of the month, and first spray disinfection, ploughing 1-2 times to loosen the soil. Then apply base fertilizer, which is recommended to be based on rotten farm fertilizer, with a small amount of chemical fertilizer, generally 4000 kilograms of farm fertilizer and a small amount of compound fertilizer per mu, raked and leveled and planted in the border, and other places.

2. Planting

Choose the excellent seedlings with strong growth, more fibrous roots and no disease, and invite the seedlings to have at least 3-4 true leaves and a stem diameter of about 1 cm, so that the survival rate is higher. Generally planted in autumn and August, when the temperature and humidity are more suitable for the growth of strawberries, after planting can make its growth heavy rain as soon as possible. Generally, two rows are planted on each border, the row spacing is controlled at about 20 cm, the interval between the border and the border is about 30 cm, the plant spacing is controlled at about 20 cm, and the plant spacing is controlled within 10,000 plants per mu.

3. Fertilizer and water management

When strawberry seedlings survive, it is necessary to water and fertilize once to promote the growth of strawberries. when strawberries enter the fruit expansion period, there is a great demand for water, so it is necessary to water frequently and keep the soil moist, but it is not suitable for flood irrigation. Drip irrigation should be used to avoid soil stagnant water causing root suffocation. At the same time, we should also pay attention to humidity, temperature, etc., the best humidity should be kept at about 50%, and the temperature should be carried out according to the growth stage of strawberries. generally, at the initial stage of planting, it should be kept between 25-30 degrees during the day, not less than 12 degrees at night, and 20-30 degrees during the fruit period. it should not be less than 5 degrees at night to avoid stagnation of fruit growth.

4. Pest control

Strawberry root system is shallow, the plant is not high, and the humid environment is easy to breed bacteria, so we should pay attention to the prevention and control measures of diseases and insect pests, especially in the low temperature and rainy period, strawberries are easily infected with gray mold and powdery mildew, and the main drugs of insect pests are aphids and so on. The prevention of diseases and insect pests is mainly based on the method of physical and chemical comprehensive control. The diseased plants are pulled out in time and taken out of the field, and the aphids can be sprayed with Shidingkang.
