And it is also necessary to feed the plant during the growing season. Sasha can be grown on almost all soils, she is not very picky about them. However, gardeners have noticed that especially rich harvests can be obtained if strawberries are grown on structural and light soils that are rich in humus. Limestone, swampy, as well as slate and saline soils for strawberries are not suitable. The plant there will ache and wither. It is important to transplant and renew strawberries every 3-4 years.

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.

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 about 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

The place for planting strawberries should be sunny and well-lit, this will allow you to harvest more often, and the berries will ripen at the same time. The site must be protected from strong winds and drafts. Prepare the soil before planting. First you need to dig up the ground shallowly, and remove all the weeds. Apply a little humus or any mineral fertilizers. Then water the selected area. After the earth dries out, loosen well again.

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.

For a good harvest, like other crops, strawberries must be fed. This must be done with organic and mineral fertilizers that dissolve well in water. For feeding, use the scheme:

  • after the first snow melts, add 500 g of mullein under each bush (for 10 liters of water, 1 kg of cow dung);

  • in May, potash sulfur is fertilized, 0.5 liters of solution is calculated for one bush (for 5 liters of water, 0.5 teaspoon of the substance);

  • in August, wood ash is introduced into the soil, and the earth is loosened.

And also during the summer, you can fertilize with nettle infusion. It is prepared like this: a third of the bucket is filled with nettles, then filled with water. Leave to infuse for 3 days. After that, the infusion is diluted 1: 1 with water, and the bushes are watered.

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

The variety is also resistant to diseases and pests, but for prevention it is better to process the bushes 2-3 times a season. You can use any means that are sold.

Strawberries are often subject to many dangerous diseases that can seriously undermine its 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.

Strawberries reproduce very well by dividing the bush. To do this, take a large bush and divide it into 2-3 parts, it depends on the size of the bush. Then each of them is planted in prepared holes.

Another very good way is to breed with a mustache. To do this, you need to separate the rosette on the antennae from the main plant, and plant the material in the prepared hole.
