A, strawberry seedlings how to plant
1, if you feel that you are not very good at planting strawberries, or feel that it is okay to spend more money, then Xiaoya suggests that we directly buy cave plate seedlings or potted seedlings, that is, with soil planted strawberry seedlings, express back to the seedling, the roots of the root system with land, planted inside the pot, which means that only need to be a good potting soil is good.
Directly planted with soil, there is no slow seedling, there is no potting, planting can not how to care about it, very easy to survive, can grow up smoothly, but if you buy back the bare root seedlings, you need to plant with care.
Bare-root seedlings are a little cheaper, but of course, when planted well, they can bear more fruits, grow faster, and produce a very good harvest.
Here's how to plant bare root strawberry seedlings.
2, when you get the delivery, take the seedlings out of the box as soon as possible, to avoid it drying out due to lack of water, or the root system is soaked, when you receive the seedlings, if it is too late to plant immediately, you can put the seedlings in a water basin, the root system touches the water on the right, the leaves can be covered with a breathable thing to block the sunlight, and the root system absorbs the water, not to say that the lack of water.
Next immediately prepared pots and potting soil, pots within two gallons of pots can be, potting soil is not really demanding, but at first do not put too much goat manure chicken manure, to avoid burning the roots, fertilizer is easy to lead to burning the roots, so at first a little less under the bottom of the fertilizer, try to put the fertilizer in the bottom of the pot, do not put too much.
Strawberry seedlings planted, you can cut off a little bit of old leaves, planting, pay attention to the root system to spread out, do not nestle in a piece, another key point, is not to bury the core, the strawberry core to leak out, exposed to the surface of the soil, otherwise it is easy to rot the roots and leaves.
3, planted after watering thoroughly, the water must be watered thoroughly, to be placed in a ventilated place, do not sunbathe, do not sunbathe, because its root system is still a damaged state, can not absorb the water inside the soil.
So this time in the sun, it is easy to sun into dry leaves, dry and withered, placed in a cool ventilated place to slow down the seedling, look at the leaves gradually stood up, become spiritual, it means that as well as serving pots.

So where warm where to put, where there is sunshine where to put, this time, if there is sunshine, if the temperature is a little higher, obviously see that it will grow faster and more lush some, the leaves will not be futile, will not be easy to grow into celery.
3, winter if there is enough light, the temperature is above 15 degrees, it can be normal to begin to have buds, begin to bloom, and even begin to hang fruit.
In the spring it will grow faster, after the temperature warmed up, to catch the sun.
