This study was performed to identify the effect of fertilizer application and planting method on growth and yield of
'Seolhyang' strawberry during seedling raising. According to the concentration of fertilizer applied, the height of daughter
plants was the highest at an EC of 0.8 dS·m-1. Leaf number and crown diameter were greatest at an EC of 0.6-0.8 dS·m-1. In the first measurement, root number was highest in non-fertilizer application, while root weight was heaviest in non-fertilizer application and EC 0.4 dS·m-1. The higher the concentration of fertilizer applied as culture media, the lower the growth rate.
Thirty days after planting on the main field, plant height and number of new leaf were highest at an EC of 0.8 dS·m-1.
However, no significant difference was found in leaf length and width and chlorophyll content according to fertilizer
application. Marketable yield of 25 g or higher was greatest in EC 0.6 dS·m-1. In contrast, no significance was found in total marketable yield at an EC of 0.4-0.8 dS·m-1. Aconsistent pattern was exhibited in the growth of 1-5 harvesting flower clusters according to planting method. The length of leaf and flower cluster was short and chlorophyll content was low, when bed soil was removed 100% in harvesting of the first flower cluster. In all treatment, leaf length was shortened until harvesting of the second and third flower cluster, but rapidly lengthened in harvesting of the third and fourth flower clusters. Moreover, the length of flower cluster had a increasing tendency from harvesting of the third flower cluster. However, chlorophyll content was reduced continuously until harvesting of the fifth flower cluster, and was lowest in harvesting of the fourth flower cluster without removal of bed soil. Total yield was greatest in treatment of crown removal in bed soil between November and May.
Late marketable yield between March and May was highest in treatment of 100% bed soil removal, followed by treatment of
crown removal. Marketable yield of 25 g or higher was greatest in treatment of crown removal between December and
February, while greatest in treatment of 100% bed soil removal between March and May.
