Plants<br />

Cold-stored strawberry Plants<br />

are available in various grades,<br />

which are best described by<br />

the crown diameter.<br />

Weak grade (A) plants (8 – 10 mm)<br />

This grade can be perfectly adequate when planting on<br />

light to medium soils. Do not pick in the planting year,<br />

remove the blossoms instead. Plant as early as possible.<br />

Standard grade (A) plants (10 – 14 mm)<br />

The most common grade planted. Can be picked in the planting year, but<br />

this will result in less yield.<br />

Grade (A+) plants (+ 14 mm)<br />

The perfect grade for 60-day culture. To be planted about 8 – 10 weeks<br />

before the picking date. Good irrigation is essential to succeed with this<br />

time- and cost-intensive production method.<br />
