PH's Day Neutral Strawberry Trial
So I am trying day neutral strawberries on a small commercial scale this year.
Trying San Andreas and Albion 2 rows os SA per bed that are 1' apart in row. 3 rows Albion 1' also. Each bed is 200' long and cover with 3 mil poly landscape fabric. Two rows up drip tape under the fabric in each bed. I will be building 2 low tunnels over half of the area to keep rain off the fruit, preventing loss from soft rot. I got a grant from NRCS for these. If things go well and I plant again next year, I will apply for two more to cover all my production area. Bed 1 and 2 were planted April 1. Bed 3 and 4 were planted April 22. 4/14 strawberry 41417a.JPG strawberry 41417b.JPG 5/1 strawberry bed3 5-1.JPG strawberry bed1 5-1.JPG 5/24 IMG_0538.JPG IMG_0540.JPG IMG_0536.JPG IMG_0535.JPG Last edited by PureHarvest; May 25, 2017 at 12:36 PM. |
