Strawberries are fragrant and sweet berries that are easy to grow. In the article, you will learn about the nuances of plant care.
Care
Planting
The best place for planting strawberries is a flat area, protected from cold winds and drafts, but with sufficient ventilation.
The more sun, the better - berries grown in partial shade or in darkened beds can sour.
The soil
The soil for growing strawberries should be sterile, light and fertile.
Best of all, the culture bears fruit on peat substrates with the addition of river sand, perlite and biohumus. For disinfection, use potassium permanganate or any fungicide.
Watering
The optimal frequency is once every 7-10 days, depending on the amount of precipitation.
If there is a lot of rain, watering is stopped - strawberries have enough rainwater.
Fertilizer
You can use compost, humus or mineral fertilizers.
The first time top dressing is given in the spring, when the bushes are thoroughly cleaned of dry and diseased leaves, and the earth is loosened so that the root system starts to grow faster.
