Strawberries do not always impress with incredible taste, and sometimes even disappoint with excessive sourness.
Sugar can help fix the problem, but no additive can replace truly sweet berries.
Why do strawberries grow sour or watery? Most likely, we are talking about poor conditions for the plant and a lack of nutrients.
Variety
The variety of plants plays a major role. The sweetest variety is "Bereginya", named after a female character from East Slavic mythology.
Strawberry-wild strawberry hybrids show excellent results.
Growing conditions
The bushes should not be thickened. The quality of the harvest is also affected by the lighting. The sunniest area should be allocated for strawberries.
Watering is provided abundantly, especially during the filling of berries. But do not bring to the state of a swamp, otherwise the taste will be watery.
Top dressing
Potassium phosphate, boric acid, chlorella extract, and potassium humate can be used as additives for strawberries.
Thus, boron stimulates pollination, berries grow larger and juicier. Chlorella extract contains a number of vitamins, which also has a positive effect on the harvest.
Potassium phosphate improves the taste of fruits, and humate is the basis of fertile soil in which plants feel great.
