The season for planting strawberries is generally year-round.
Spring strawberry planting time is in March to May; summer strawberry planting time is in June to July; fall strawberry planting time is in September to October; winter strawberry planting time is in November to December.
1, choose the land
Strawberries should not be planted in low terrain, the ground potholes uneven places. Strong drainage and irrigation capacity, fertile and loose soil, good fertilizer and water retention and good permeability of the soil is the most suitable for strawberry planting. Strawberries grow in acidic or neutral soil, too alkaline will hinder the development of strawberries. The soil before the crop as far as possible to choose beans and melon crops.
2, land preparation
After selecting a good land, the weeds between the land should be all removed, and then disinfected, sun exposure for 3-5 days after the application of adequate agricultural fertilizer. According to the land area to determine the amount of bottom fertilizer, usually 5000 kg / mu, and then mixed with a small amount of calcium superphosphate and potassium chloride. After applying the bottom fertilizer, ploughing will be carried out to mix the bottom fertilizer with the soil evenly and improve the soil fertility. Finally, make a good border to facilitate the growth of strawberries and later management.
3, planting
The method of planting has a great deal to do with the later growth and management of strawberries. The planting should ensure that the inflorescence of each plant grows in the same direction, and the number of each hole planted should not be more than one. Master the planting depth, not too shallow or too deep. Reasonable control of planting density, planting density according to the planting area and the degree of soil fertility, should not be too dense or too thin.
4, watering
Strawberries like water, after planting to accumulate enough water, and then about 5-7 days of watering, to ensure that the soil does not appear dry phenomenon. In the growth process to ensure adequate water to promote plant growth, in the strawberry in the flowering period is the stage of greater water demand, if not timely watering will lead to late growth of serious phenomenon of blossom and fruit drop, reduce yields.
5, fertilizer
Strawberry growth of the nutrients needed is more, especially in the flowering and fruiting period and before the time, so we need to fertilize the bottom. Then in the growth of the actual situation according to the appropriate fertilizer, for example, in the flowering and fruiting period, fruit expansion and the final ripening period is the peak of fertilizer needs. We can properly chase the application of Wo Ye potassium dihydrogen phosphate and other fertilizers to improve the yield, fertilizer to ensure that the full range of nutrients, a reasonable proportion of the preparation, in order to effectively promote growth.
6, temperature
Strawberries are a kind of temperature-loving fruit, more sensitive to changes in temperature, we have to reasonably control the growth temperature around the strawberry in the planting process. Strengthen the temperature management, strawberry optimal growth temperature in 22-25 degrees, more than 5-30 degrees range, strawberry growth will be a greater obstacle. So we must keep the temperature around the balance, in order to make the strawberry better growth.
7, management
Frequent inspections of the orchard, the old and dead leaves and diseased leaves and other timely removal, clean up the fallen flowers and fruits with some of the diseased fruits, focused on bringing out of the orchard to deal with. Control the growth of the plant, to prevent the phenomenon of futile growth. Do a good job of orchard drainage and irrigation work, drought timely watering, rainy days to prevent the orchard waterlogged. Try to reduce the humidity of the orchard, to prevent the phenomenon of maceration and rotten fruit, affecting the yield.
