Hi! My strawberries don’t produce any fruit although they’re big and have a
lot of runners. I have to cut runners off all the time. How to make my
strawberry start to have flower? Thanks so much!

Irrigation is determined by a light meter measuring sunlight hours, so they
get more water on a sunny day, less if it’s cloudy. The nutrients are
listed in the description.

No no no no it is stupid to buy every year Strawberries (plants) You can
not get to much in first year of harvest but is second and third year that
is very high income…. You hold 5 year Strawberries than buy new plants…
that is how is doing in my country… than we plant something another let’s
say corn to clean a land from strawberries for one or two years then we
plant again strawberries… for hydroponics you do not need to wait plant
them i same year …. this is easy for work

Another question, what kind of hydroponic system are you running, are you
flooding and draining?

Хотелось бы по подробнее об устройстве лотков и поддонов на которые
устанавливаются мешки с минеральной ватой?

It may be cheaper to grow them on the ground in the first season, but once
it is set up it’s much quicker & cheaper to maintain, replant, harvest &
deal with pests. To do it commercially on the ground you have to get
someone in fumigate the ground, lay down the plastic & you still need a
pump, timer system etc to feed them nutrients. On the ground you also have
the weeds & slugs to contend with, we we ended up having to lay weedmat
between all the rows when we had them on the ground —

— & lay slug pellets every week or so. Another benefit of having them on
platforms, you can fatten a few sheep underneath. Cheers
