Care for late strawberries

In order for a crop to yield a good harvest, it must be properly cared for. What are the features of planting and growing strawberries, as well as caring for them, we will consider further.

Choosing a site

Late varieties of strawberries grow on almost any soil, but the yield, taste and resistance to diseases are several times higher precisely on those soils to which the berry is more responsive. Loves strawberries light fertile soils. Grows well on sandy, sandy loam soils. Worse - on peat and sod-podzolic.

The location of groundwater is no closer than 70 cm. In areas where the water level is higher, good drainage of the soil or high beds are recommended. It is not recommended to plant strawberries in the lowlands. The acidity of the soil is 5.5-6.6. At a lower level, experienced farmers recommend liming the soil, at a higher level, gypsum plastering.

Preparing the site for planting

• In the fall, the site needs to be dug up onto a shovel bayonet. In the spring (before planting) - loosen the soil by 15 cm.
• Check for the presence of pests, pay particular attention to this in the presence of dense plantings nearby and when using fresh manure. Having found "uninvited guests", treat the land with ammonia water.
• Treat weeds with herbicides.

Boarding time

Planting time varies by region:

• Spring. After the snow melts and the earth warms up. At this time, the land is saturated with moisture, and plants are less susceptible to return frost. A later planting is fraught with the death of seedlings under the hot sun.
• Autumn. The optimal planting time is from August to September. Late planting is fraught with loss of harvest for the next year, since the plant will not have time to take root.

Stocking density

Basically, late varieties of strawberries are planted with a distance between rosettes of 20-30 cm, lines - 30 cm and row spacing - 60-70 cm (two-line planting). With a one-line, the indicators are as follows: between the sockets - 15-20 cm, between the lines - 60-70 cm. With more frequent planting, the plants will not have enough light and air permeability, which can lead to diseases.

Planting depth

Shorten the roots more than 8 cm, deepen into the planting hole so that the root collar is at the level of the soil, straighten the roots and cover them with soil, carefully compact. Water abundantly and mulch the soil around the outlets. It is advisable to shade for several days of planting.

Watering

For the first 2 weeks, keep the soil moist - you need to water it daily, then every 2 days.Water the rest of the time, depending on the weather conditions, do not dry out. Mulching will prevent the soil from drying out.

Top dressing

Fertilizers are recommended to be applied at least 5 cm from the bush. For most varieties, 4 dressings are enough:

1. 14 days after planting. Superphosphate (30 g) and wood ash - half a glass are taken for 10 liters of water.
2. The beginning of flowering. Dilute mullein with water in a ratio of 1: 6; chicken droppings - 1:20. Insist for 7 days. For 10 liters of solution - half a glass of ash. Subsequent feeding - every 2 weeks.
3. Mullein is diluted with water in a ratio of 1: 6, half a glass of ash, superphosphate (50 g) and 20 liters of water are added.
4. Dilute mullein with water (1: 6); chicken droppings - 1:20. Insist for 7 days. For 10 liters of solution - half a glass of ash.

The latest varieties require additional feeding.

Late strawberries: the best varieties. Gardener's advice and feedback

Below we will consider the most frequently asked questions by novice gardeners and provide answers to them and recommendations of experienced farmers.

Do I need to trim the strawberry leaves?

Leaves are essential for good plant growth and development. They are divided into autumn, summer and spring. The latter appear in April and play an important role in harvesting. After fruiting, they are replaced by summer ones, it is they that serve to lay the buds and accumulate nutrients. The latest, autumn leaves, appear in September-October. The berry hibernates with them.

• It is better not to mow autumn leaves, as they serve as a natural protection for strawberry rosettes. Pruning them affects the future harvest (next year).
• If strawberry bushes are damaged by pests and diseases, the leaves must be cut off unambiguously. The sooner the better. After picking berries from the bush, the leaves should be cut off, leaving the growing point and processed. The bush will get stronger until autumn and prepare for winter.
• The latest strawberry variety (Malvina) is recommended to thin out during fruiting, periodically cutting off the leaves. This will provide better ventilation and lighting for the berries.
• After fruiting, professionals advise cutting off the lower old leaves and excess mustache from the bushes.

The most reliable variety for a summer resident near Moscow?

The tested late varieties of strawberries for the Moscow region, which are not afraid of the climatic conditions of the middle zone and guarantee a harvest, are an ageless "classic", proven over the years.

• Zenga-Zengana is a late variety of German selection. Bushes are tall, with a lot of leaves. Productivity - 2 kg per 1 m2. Berries weighing up to 20 g, cone-shaped, dark red, with firm pulp, sweet taste and strong aroma. The variety tolerates winter well, has the ability to recover, it does not tolerate high temperatures - the berry becomes smaller. Resistant to disease.

There are a lot of newer varieties suitable for growing in the Moscow region, but the most reliable varieties of late strawberries that winter well, with large fruits and good yields are Polka, Tenira, Borovitskaya, Vigoda, Maryshka, Carmen, Bohema.

Why mulch the soil?

One of the main reasons for mulching is temperature control. In summer, mulch saves the soil from overheating, in winter - from freezing. In the spring, the ground is covered with dark material so that it warms up better. To cool the soil, cover it with light mulch. So it stays moist longer, and the tops of the plants, on the contrary, warm up better.

In addition, mulching inhibits the growth of weeds. Mulch from organic matter, gradually decomposing, supplies the soil with nutrients, as a result, its structure improves. The material protects the soil from being washed out by rains and weathering, protects against diseases and pests.

Which variety to choose in Belarus?

There are a lot of Dutch varieties in Belarus now, but time has shown that they do not always meet expectations.Most of the gardeners note that the best late strawberry varieties in Belarus are Hepill, Cabot, Salsa, Galyachiv, Adria, Finella. I would especially like to mention the Japanese variety Chamora Turusi, as it quickly gained popularity.

Chamora Turusi is a medium late variety with a yield of up to 1.5 kg per plant. The plant is tall, powerful with large leaves. The berries are large, weighing up to 110 g, with dense pulp and strawberry aroma. The fruits are transportable, with a long shelf life. The variety is hardy and winter-hardy. Susceptible to fungal diseases, but resistant to powdery mildew.

What is the tastiest, sweetest and largest strawberry variety? Which strawberry is late?

Description of the variety, reviews confirm that Malvina strawberry is an amazing, latest variety. Delicious berries ripen in July, when many varieties have completed fruiting.

Numerous reviews also note the excellent taste of the Chamora Turusi variety. Some gardeners claim that this berry is moody, but the aroma and taste of the strawberry is excellent.

The variety Great Britain was also highly appreciated by gardeners for its amazing aroma and very large fruits. Gardeners note the culture's immunity to diseases and excellent transportability.

Want to enjoy garden strawberries (strawberries) for as long as possible? Then plant varieties with different ripening periods. And be sure to plant some late strawberry bushes that bear fruit in the second half of summer.

Every summer resident wants to open the strawberry season as soon as possible. Why, then, are late varieties needed, which begin to bear fruit in mid-June, and some in early July? There are several advantages of growing such strawberries:

• the time for picking berries is extended (when other varieties have already borne fruit, the later one is just beginning);
• during the season for collecting other berries and processing them for the winter, you will still have fresh strawberries for harvesting;
• some varieties are capable of bearing fruit until September, which means that the vitamin berry will be on the table all this time.

The best and most popular strawberry varieties to plant in the garden: Bohemia, Great Britain, Gigantella Maxim, Malvina, Pegasus, Princess Diana, Charlotte.

Late strawberries can be planted both in spring and autumn. In the first case, this is done when the snow melts from the site and the soil warms up. The earth must be saturated with moisture. Autumn planting involves the transfer of seedlings to open ground in August-September. When planted later, the plants may not have time to take root. And this is fraught with loss of harvest next season.

1. On ordinary beds, in greenhouses, tunnel shelters, mother bushes of plants are planted. Peduncles on them are regularly removed so that the plant uses the strength to give birth to new rosettes.
2. Young bushes are intensively watered and fertilized.
3. The readiness of the seedlings is determined by the type of roots. They should turn brown with light tips. The leaves turn brown, which confirms the state of hibernation of young bushes. Most often this occurs at the end of October, November.
4. The dug out plants are brought into a cool room with a temperature of about 12 °.
5. The roots are shaken off. Washing, cutting them is prohibited. Large dry leaves are removed. The leaves located near the growing point should be preserved. The seedlings are sprayed with a fungicide, loaded into small-volume film bags with a film thickness not exceeding 0.5 mm.
6. Sacks with seedlings are placed in cold places with a humidity of 90% and T from 0 to 2 ° C. These parameters must be strictly observed so that the seedlings do not die. The shelf life of seedlings varies from several weeks to a year.
7. Seedling awakening. Seedlings in the package are kept for 24 hours at room temperature. Then the roots of the seedlings are immersed in water containing a biostimulant solution for three hours. At the same time, lost moisture is restored, vitality is activated. The solution should not come into contact with the seedlings' core.
