Planting & Care Instructions
Best Planting Time:
- Warm regions: March–April
- Cooler regions: June–July
- Sunlight: Full sun (6–8 hours daily)
- Soil: Well-draining, slightly acidic soil (pH 5.5–6.5)
1. Prepare Your Soil
Amend the soil with compost or well-aged manure to enrich nutrients. For proper drainage, form mounded rows about 12 inches (30 cm) apart.
2. Planting
- Space plants 12 inches (30 cm) apart to promote airflow and reduce fungal issues.
- Ensure the crown is level with the soil surface—do not bury it.
- After planting, mulch to retain moisture and protect fruit from touching the soil.
3. Watering
Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Avoid wetting leaves—use drip irrigation for best results. Water early in the day to prevent rot.
4. Fertilizing
Use a fertilizer high in potassium to encourage strong fruiting. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for frequency and dosage.
5. Pollination
Plant near another red strawberry variety for best fruit production. Bumblebees and other pollinators will help boost yield.
