Matters needing attention in strawberry management in spring

Strawberry is a popular fruit on the market, and the price is relatively high, so more and more people grow strawberries. The temperature continues to rise in spring, and strawberries will grow better and better. At this time, if strawberries want to grow well, we must first strengthen management. So how to manage strawberries in spring? Let's get to know it with the editor.

1. Clean up the mulch

When the temperature is lower in early spring, in order to grow strawberries in early spring, rice straw is often covered in the field to keep warm and prevent freezing, but when the spring temperature is stable above 10 degrees, the mulch needs to be removed in time, and at the same time, be careful not to break off the branches, leaves, flowers and fruits of strawberries so as not to affect the yield and quality. If it is a double cover, then the last film needs to be removed first. At the same time, we should also pay attention to do a good job of seedling refining, in case the temperature difference is too large, and frostbite seedlings have a certain impact on the growth and development in the later stage.

2. Ploughing and fertilization

If strawberries are cultivated in the open field, they must be ploughed, weeded and fertilized in time after spring, so as to break the soil consolidation, promote root development, and lay a solid foundation for high yield. Fertilization should be based on compound fertilizer, urea or human feces and urine, while avoiding the use of ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate and other fertilizers, because they decompose will produce a large amount of ammonia, and strawberries are stolon crops, which can easily cause leaves and fruits to be burned by ammonia, affecting yield and quality.

3. Thinning flowers and buds

After the emergence of strawberry buds, the first thing to do is to remove the thin buds and leave strong buds. The reason for this is to avoid insufficient nutrient supply of strawberries due to too many buds, resulting in weak growth of strawberries and a relative increase in small and abnormal fruits. In addition, in the full flowering period of strawberries, we should also do a good job of thinning flowers and fruits, so that the fruit size is uniform, the ripening period is the same, and effectively improve the variety and efficiency of strawberries. In addition, covering the border with plastic film to increase the ground temperature can effectively accelerate the growth and development of strawberries.

4. Disease prevention

In the fruit growing period, if heavy rain leads to stagnant water in the field, if it is not drained in time, it will lead to soft deterioration or even decay of the fruit, so it is necessary to dredge the drainage ditch in early spring and drain and drop stains in time when it is rainy in spring. In the occurrence of disease harm, it is necessary to immediately spray targeted agents and new high-fat film for control, spray once a week every other week, continuous spraying 2-3 feet, thoroughly control the disease.
