Strawberry growing process
Strawberry seedlings can be bought, dug up from an already growing plantation, or formed on the tendrils of existing bushes. In the latter case, take a plastic film, put a little soil on it, and put a banana ring. Then we apply a mustache with a nascent bush to the banana.
After this, we bend the film and wrap it with thread. The leaves should remain outside.
Thus, bags are obtained in which a root is formed in 2 weeks.
To plant strawberries, cut PET bottles in half.Use a soldering iron to burn drainage holes in them. You also need to make two holes for hanging. A cord is passed through them. That is, both the bottom and neck of the bottle come into play.
Finished pots are hung on a rack or wall. The place must be well lit, since strawberries do not grow particularly well in the shade. The pots are filled with soil.
Then strawberries are planted in the soil. If you made seedlings on the mustache, then cut them from the bushes immediately before planting. After planting, water the strawberries and leave them alone. We periodically water the soil as the soil dries out.
After 3.5 months, using a remontant variety that bears fruit several times a year, it will be possible to harvest the first strawberries.
After harvest, be sure to fertilize the soil to provide everything necessary for the formation of the next berries.
