Strawberries are a fast-growing fruit that needs to be pruned and treated regularly to ensure healthy growth and yield. When strawberry seedlings grow sprouts, the following treatments are required:
Trim in time
When strawberry seedlings sprout sprouts, they need to be pruned in time to promote their healthy growth. When pruning, you can use sharp scissors or blades to cut or cut off the vine buds, leaving shoots about 3-5 cm long. After pruning, you can spray the right amount of fungicide to prevent germ infection.
Keep the soil moist
Strawberry seedlings need to keep the soil moist to promote their growth. If the soil is too dry, it will affect the growth rate and yield of strawberries. Therefore, after pruning, it can be watered in moderation to keep the soil moist. At the same time, it can be covered with a layer of mulch film to maintain soil temperature and humidity.
Replenish nutrients
Strawberry seedlings need adequate nutrients to grow and develop properly. Therefore, after pruning, an appropriate amount of fertilizer can be applied to replenish the nutrients. You can choose organic or chemical fertilizers, but be careful not to over-fertilize them so as not to cause harm to the strawberries.
Control pests and diseases
Strawberry seedlings are susceptible to pests and diseases, so they need to be controlled regularly. After pruning, the right amount of fungicides and insecticides can be sprayed to prevent the occurrence of pests and diseases. At the same time, attention should be paid to maintaining good ventilation and light conditions to enhance the disease resistance of strawberries.
In conclusion, the buds grown from strawberry seedlings need to be pruned and treated in time to promote their healthy growth and yield. After pruning, measures such as keeping the soil moist, supplementing nutrients, and controlling pests and diseases can be taken to ensure the growth rate and yield of strawberries.
