Strawberry planting techniques with high yields
Step 1: Incubate strawberry seeds in warm water for 6 hours, then remove and incubate in a damp towel for 12 hours for the seeds to absorb water and come out
Step 2: Then you plant the seeds in a pot and cover with a thin layer of soil.
For quick seed germination, you just need to wrap a layer of plastic on the outside of the nursery tray, leave the nursery tray in a dry place with moderate sunlight, water once a day in the evening. Keep the soil moist and in direct sunlight. Strawberry plants can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate.
Step 3: After the plant has 3-5 true leaves, gently separate the soil from the tray and plant in a large pot or bed. Depending on the size of the mulberry tree and the pot you use, you can grow from 1 or more plants in 1 pot.
Step 4:
- The plant pot should be placed in a place with good humidity and direct sunlight, it should not be placed in a place with continuous sunlight.
- Usually water in the afternoon when the sun comes out and water the soil thoroughly. If your soil does not retain moisture, you can water it once in the morning to ensure that the plant always has enough moisture.
- Prune old leaves, pests, diseases, and leaves that are obscured by the lower layer, so they should be observed periodically to prune them to help the plant easily photosynthesize. Note, prune only when the leaves are thick or damaged because pruning many trees will lose the ability to photosynthesize
Step 5: After about 3-4 months from planting, the strawberry plant has started to give the first fruit, but the first batch will not be tasty and juicy. Each batch of ripe strawberries provides a 3 to 4 week harvest, red and evenly ripened strawberries, with a light and juicy aroma. You have to pick the required fruits one by one, leaving unripe fruits.
