So, it is worth knowing that at high air temperatures, the mass of berries is significantly reduced, the fruits become small and unappetizing, although this does not affect the taste in any way. In general, the variety tolerates unfavorable conditions quite well.

When and how to plant strawberries so that they bring a rich harvest is a question that novice gardeners often ask themselves. The berries can be planted in the ground in spring, summer and autumn. Each season has its own characteristics of planting.
Strawberries are the most beloved and popular berry in our gardens. Even in the smallest plots, there will always be a place for it, since every year there are more and more unexpected and original solutions for its cultivation. Strawberries are grown in the form of a carpet, rows, nests, in addition to many different original options. Everyone chooses their own way depending on the area of ​​the site and its design.
Watering strawberries, like any other garden crop, should be in compliance with all the necessary recommendations. During the fruiting period, including the ripening of the fruits, the amount of moisture should be sufficient for the harvest to be a decent amount, and the berries are tasty and aromatic. If you neglect watering, or water little and not enough, then the strawberries can dry out. With excessive moisture, the berries can rot.
Speaking of pruning strawberries, most often it is the removal of leaves on fertile bushes that is meant.This is done to partially rejuvenate the plant, to get rid of damaged, diseased leaves, to prevent bacterial and fungal infections, to reduce the number of harmful insects.

Site selection and soil preparation

This strawberry loves a sunny area and fertile soil. The plant will feel good on a flat area or on a surface with a slope to the southwest. A big mistake would be to plant a bush on a steep slope, as well as in a place where cold air reigns. One of the advantages of Mariguette is its unpretentiousness to adverse conditions, but still, for example, drafts should be avoided.

Do not leave strawberries in one place for more than 4 years, because of this, even a healthy strong plant becomes vulnerable to disease.

The presented variety prefers to grow in soil with a neutral acidity level, not higher than 5.8 pH. The best option is loam and sandy loam with humus content. If groundwater passes close to the selected area, then high ridges are prepared in advance for planting.

The soil for strawberries should be saturated with organic matter. The plant grows best on light loamy or sandy loam soil. Black soil and gray forest soil are also excellent for cultivation. It is undesirable to plant strawberries on clay soil.

Pollination

Pollination of a plant of this variety can be done manually using a piece of cotton wool wound on a stick. Some gardeners use electrical appliances to ventilate the space, this method is especially relevant for greenhouses. It is also possible to place a hive with bees on the site - this method is in demand on an area of ​​more than 1 hectare.

One of the important techniques in strawberry care is feeding. Regular fertilization guarantees a rich harvest. There are several different ways to feed strawberries, and each of them is designed for a specific period of plant development. During flowering, fruiting and after it, feeding should be different.

In order for strawberries to delight us with an abundance of large and sweet berries next year, they need to be properly prepared for winter. The set of measures for preparing strawberries for the cold includes: pruning, watering, feeding, loosening, pest control, mulching and shelter.

Diseases and pests

Marigette strawberries are almost immune to common diseases such as powdery mildew, spotting or root rot. Pests are also not too interested in this variety. According to breeders, even with a large-scale attack on neighboring bushes, insects do not touch Mariget.

Strawberries are often subject to many dangerous diseases that can seriously undermine their condition. Among the most common are powdery mildew, gray mold, brown spot, anthracnose, and verticillosis. Before buying a variety, you need to inquire about its disease resistance.

Reproduction

Best of all, such a plant reproduces with tendrils. When choosing planting material, give preference to the outlets closest to the mother bush. Leave three sockets on the shoot. Usually about 5 tendrils with three rosettes remain on the parent plant. That is, one bush gives about 15 healthy outlets. Read on for a few rules next.

  • When breeding, do not grow fruits and rosettes on the same mother bush. Peduncles should be removed immediately.

  • Choose planting material from bushes that have been bearing fruit for 2 years.

  • When planting a seedling in the first two days, cover the shoot with paper, not very tightly. For the first week, water the young sprout two or three times a day from a watering can. For 1 sq. m, use 2-3 liters of water. These actions will allow the seedling to take root well. Further, the plant needs watering once a week.

  • In extreme heat, the culture requires humidification every 4-5 days.

  • In August, loosen the soil 2 or 3 times to a depth of 3-4 cm.

  • In October, mulch the soil with peat or sawdust.

  • In November, cover the bushes with spruce branches so that the snow lingers in the garden.

Strawberries or garden strawberries multiply very easily. The most common way to obtain planting material is to grow young plants from vegetative shoots - whiskers. Seedlings are also obtained by dividing the bush.
