Have time to do this with strawberries before they begin to form ovaries so that the plant has time to produce a large harvest at the beginning of the season.
To get juicy and tasty berries, you need to take three main steps, which will be discussed.
How to care for strawberries
First of all, you need to do this. As soon as spring comes, you can do this procedure or do it before the buds begin to form.
If you see that there are last year's leaves left, you can simply pick them off from inside the bush and clean them up.
Also in spring, when the leaves just start to turn green, before budding, you need to do the first feeding, which should be based on nitrogen. You can feed strawberries with complex fertilizer.
Of the nitrogen fertilizers, strawberries need organic matter - chicken manure or mullein.
If there is no organic matter, you can use mineral fertilizer, but it is better not to get too carried away, so as not to acidify the soil.
You can use one of the nitrogen fertilizers “Urea” for watering: 1 tablespoon of the product per 10 liters of water.
To develop strawberries, use a fertilizer based on humic acids: 30 ml of solution per 10 liters of water. Water the beds in cloudy weather or in the evening.
In addition, it is important not to forget about mulching.
