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 />
