Guiding workers to plant strawberries should be done carefully, so here's a checklist of things to consider when planting.
When a decision is made on a farm to start cultivating berries in a tunnel or greenhouse and using growing media, one of the most important factors to consider is fertilization. When growing in containers, fertilization is done with irrigation. Usually, a technical expert will draw up a fertilization plan to guide the grower on how the fertilization should be carried out. In tunnel and greenhouse cultivation, fertilization can significantly affect the quantity and quality of the crop, so careful planning of irrigation and fertilization must be done. Next, I will cover five factors that need to be considered during the design phase.
Growing berries in growing media in tunnels and greenhouses has become increasingly popular over the past few years. Growers can reach an optimal result by minimising the factors impairing the amount and quality of the crops both before and during the growing season.
There are many options available for soft fruit substrates. Soft fruits grown on substrates are mainly strawberry and raspberry in the Nordics, also the cultivation of blueberries has increased in tunnels. Next, I will share a few things to consider when choosing the substrate for growing soft fruits.
