Strawberries are sweet and sour, and rich in nutrients, making them a popular fruit. Many farmers grow strawberries, and proper fertilization is essential for high yields and quality. So, how should strawberries be fertilized? Let's take a look.
1. Before transplanting
Before transplanting strawberry seedlings, apply sufficient base fertilizer. The quality and amount of base fertilizer directly affect the growth and yield of strawberries. Apply 2000-3000 kg of well-rotted organic fertilizer per acre, along with an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer . This will ensure the strawberries grow smoothly after transplanting and improve the survival rate.
2. Seedling establishment period
After strawberry plants are transplanted, they need to be allowed to recover. During this period, the soil should be kept moist to promote root growth and development. At this time, an appropriate amount of rooting agent, such as "Genda Taizong Water-soluble Fertilizer ," can be sprayed or drip-irrigated to promote root growth and development. Simultaneously, an appropriate amount of foliar fertilizer, such as "Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate," can also be sprayed to promote plant growth and development.
3. Budding stage
The budding stage of strawberries is a period of high nutrient demand, requiring timely topdressing. During this stage, appropriate amounts of urea and potassium sulfate can be applied per acre to promote plant growth and development. Simultaneously, a mixture of "Shuangbao Taizong foliar fertilizer" and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be sprayed to promote flowering and fruiting.
4. Flowering period
The flowering period of strawberries is a critical time for nutrient requirements, requiring special attention to fertilization management. At this time, appropriate amounts of urea and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be applied per acre to meet the nutrient needs of strawberries. Simultaneously, a suitable amount of a mixture of "Shuangbao Taizong foliar fertilizer" and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be sprayed to promote flowering and fruiting.
5. Results period
Strawberries require a large supply of nutrients during their fruiting period. At this time, appropriate amounts of urea and potassium sulfate can be applied per acre to meet the strawberry's nutrient needs. Simultaneously, it's also necessary to regularly spray appropriate amounts of "Pengda Taizong Foliar Fertilizer," "Tianliang Taizong Foliar Fertilizer," and sugar alcohol calcium mixture to promote fruit development and improve quality. Multiple top dressings can also be applied during the fruit development period to meet the various nutrient requirements of strawberry growth.
6. Harvesting period
The strawberry harvest period is crucial for improving fruit quality and requires enhanced fertilization management. During harvest, apply appropriate amounts of urea and potassium dihydrogen phosphate per acre to meet the nutrient needs of the strawberries. Simultaneously, spray with appropriate amounts of potassium dihydrogen phosphate and sugar alcohol calcium to promote fruit development and improve quality. Multiple top dressings can also be applied during the harvest to meet the various nutrient requirements for strawberry growth.
7. Crop rotation period
The strawberry crop rotation period is a crucial time for strawberry plant renewal, requiring strengthened fertilization management. During this period, appropriate amounts of urea and potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be applied per acre to meet the nutrient needs of the strawberries. Simultaneously, a suitable amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate and a mixture of calcium, magnesium, boron, zinc, and iron can be sprayed to promote the growth and development of the strawberry plants. Multiple top dressings can also be applied during the strawberry crop rotation period to meet the various nutrient requirements for strawberry growth.
