Abstract

A glasshouse experiment conducted from Oct. 1974 to June 1975 showed that strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cvs. Tioga and Sequoia from California yield well under glasshouse conditions in Nova Scotia. The date of digging plants in the fall and the number of days the plants were chilled at 0 C had a significant effect on yield. The optimal period of chilling for Sequoia was longer than that for Tioga. Plants grown in plots mulched with clear polyethylene outyielded plants grown in plots with heating cables or grown in control plots. The highest yield (619 g) per plant was from Tioga dug on 30 Oct, chilled 15 days and grown with clear polyethylene mulch. Sequoia’s average fruit weight (12.3 g) was significantly larger than Tioga’s (10.6 g). Chilling increased average fruit weight significantly.
