Dear colleagues,
Could you be so kind to help me with problem on strawberry fruits? We cultivate strawberry fruits at the greenhouse using Holland method (in hanging gutters). We work with full organic method: BrownGrow (copra) substrate, organic fluid fertilizer (NPK — 4-2-8), and microelements. Unfortunately, every time at the beginning of vegetation I lose about 30-40% of harvest due to green tips on the bottom part. I increase the quantity of K, but in vain.
Can you describe me the causes for this undesirable phenomena?
Sincerely,
Mehdi Ali.
Dear Mehdi, I think Now content is low than desired.
However if you add few pictures,it will be very easy to diagnose and provide feedback
Sometimes it happen due to application of too much N-P-K but in your case it was not.Therefore, I think the cultivar is ill-suited to your environment. You may change your cultivar.
Dear Dr Tarafdar,
We use the Elsanta variety. It is quite enough good variety, I believe. May be, you can recommend me the another variety, with the same taste?
Sincerely, Mehdi.
Dear Dr Singh,
The new lines of strawberry must give the harvest at the second half of May. I'll send the pictures of fruits at that time.
Sincerely, Mehdi.
