What will be an ideal response?
Seven points to consider when selecting strawberry plants include:
• Picking a variety that produces firm berries if shipping to market.
• Choosing large, softer-textured varieties that have a bright red color, firm flesh, and a
tart flavor, if freezing
• Picking plants that ripen when the best market prices are available.
• Using plants that bloom late in the season, if frost protection is unavailable.
• Choosing varieties that are well known and will yield enough volume to provide
truckload lots and ensures a better price for the fruit, if planting for the wholesale
market.
• Using disease-resistant varieties wherever possible.
• Picking three or more varieties that ripen at different times are planted to extend the
picking season.
