Planting and Management methods of Milk Strawberry

Milk strawberry is now a popular strawberry variety in China, and the market demand in our country is very large. Milk strawberries have similar nutritional value to ordinary strawberries, but they will taste better and cost more. Now the planting area of milk strawberries in our country is relatively large. So how to manage when growing milk strawberries? The following editor brings you the planting and management methods of milk strawberries, let's have a look!

1. Management before flower bud differentiation.

The management of milk strawberry before flower bud differentiation is very important. Under normal circumstances, the transplanting time of milk strawberries is generally around September every year, and water should be replenished in time after transplanting. And do a good job of shading. The distance between the sunshade net and the ground should be kept at about 1 meter. Then the old and weak leaves should be removed in time, and the right amount of axillary buds and grape stems should be removed. Milk strawberry needs the environment of low temperature and short day during flower bud differentiation, and the suitable environment is very favorable for the differentiation of terminal inflorescence and axillary inflorescence of milk strawberry.

2. Water and fertilizer management

Milk strawberries should be watered once during flowering and early fruit period, and the watering method is generally based on furrow irrigation. The amount of water should be kept at the depth of the ditch at 2pm and about 3. In relatively dry weather, it will be watered about once a week or so. Hole irrigation can be used for watering. On the contrary, for recycling in rainy days, watering should be done well to improve the drainage and irrigation capacity of the garden. Then it is necessary to do a good job of mid-ploughing and fertilization, at least about 3 times from November to December, and then topdressing once in the early flowering and early fruiting stage, mainly urea and phosphate fertilizer.

3. Cover with plastic film

From October to November every year, the flower bud differentiation of milk strawberry gradually entered the final stage. At this time, the sunshade net can be removed properly, and the plastic film should be covered after the Beginning of Winter's solar terms. And before the arrival of heavy snow solar terms, it is necessary to do a good job in covering the greenhouse film. The temperature in the greenhouse should be kept at about 19 degrees. Especially in the depths of winter, it is necessary to cover large and medium-sized greenhouse film together, mainly in order to maintain the temperature in the greenhouse and promote strawberries to survive the winter safely. The lowest temperature should not be lower than 23 degrees to ensure the normal growth of strawberries.

4. Reasonable ventilation

When planting strawberries, we should also control the soil moisture, which should be kept at about 75%. The air humidity in the greenhouse should be controlled at about 65%. So if the temperature in the greenhouse is higher than 30 degrees, then it is also necessary to do a good job of ventilation and cooling. Ventilation should be carried out at 10:00 and 15:00 every day in winter. The humidity in the shed should not be too high, and if it exceeds 70%, it should be ventilated in time. During the flowering period, some bees can be put into the greenhouse for pollination, and reasonable ventilation can effectively prevent strawberry diseases such as powdery mildew.
