Abstract:
Eighteen strawberry cultivars were compared
in a matted row system on a sandy loam soil in
southwest Michigan in 1991 and 1992. The most
productive cultivars were "Honeoye,' 'Annapolis'
and 'Lester' in the early season, 'Glooscap,'
'Settler' and 'Selkirk' in the mid season, and
'AUstar * 'Kent,' 'Jewel' and 'Blomidon' in the late
season. 'Lester' and 'Selkirk' rated relatively
high in shelf-life characteristics.
When whole
berries were frozen then thawed, 'Lester,' 'Sel
kirk' and 'Allstar' rated highest in appearance.
