This results in earlier growth, larger plants, increased resistance to disease but most importantly more fruit and a heavier yield when compared to Spring planted runners.

Lush plants with attractive glossy, bright orange-red berries of a good uniform shape. Superb sweet flavour and juicy texture it has been proven to have the best ‘rain resistant’ fruit. Plants are very hardy and grow well even in the North of the country.

Summer planting Misted Tip plug plants produce strong root systems through autumn and winter, which establishes the plant much earlier than traditional winter planted runners. This results in earlier growth, larger plants, increased resistance to disease but most importantly more fruit and a heavier yield when compared to Spring planted runners.

This innovative process in strawberry production is increasingly being used by commercial growers to give bigger and better first year yields.

Growing Hint & Tips

Plant your strawberry plants as soon as you get them, in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Space the plants 35cm (14in) apart, in rows spaced 75cm (30in) apart. Water regularly in dry periods, especially while the plants are getting established.

In spring and summer, feed fortnightly with a liquid high-potash feed (tomato feed is ideal).

Mulch around the plants with straw to protect the fruit from slugs and snails.

Once the fruit starts to develop, cover the plants with netting to protect the fruit from birds.

Cut off old leaves at the end of summer and remove the netting. Clear away any straw mulch to improve ventilation around the plants.
