Title: Effect of Plant Spacing on Strawberry Yield in Two Cultural Systems
Authors: J.B. Masiunas, S.C. Weller, R.A. Hayden, and J. Janick
Abstract:
The effects of mother plant spacing of 'Redchief
strawberry on yield were evaluated with
two cultural systems: runnerless and matted
row.
In both systems, the plots with narrowest
between-row spacings (30 cm for runnerless
rows and 45 cm for matted rows) had the
greatest yields per unit area.
Decreased withinrow
spacing decreased berry weight and num
ber per plant but did not affect yield per unit
area.
Because of high plant cost for the runner
less row system, the matted row system was
clearly superior for 'Redchief in our trials.
