Hi colleagues,
So, I continue to train strawberries. I had to use quite aggressive defoliation aka lollypoping to be able to keep the girls under control. Well, what do you think...within two days they recovered and, as if for nothing, they are racing again in growth. I am writing this post a little late, so at this time the girls are on their first day on 12/12. Mendocino is already about to leave a large area, so I hope it will work out and I won't have 60x60cm, 1 meter big strawberries. 🤣
Peace✌️

The whole thing continued, nothing changed, the flowers were still visibly dying, whether I fertilized the root a little or not, no changes.😩😭
After 2 weeks of suffering, I plucked up the courage 😠and took the girls out with the stupid fu*kin peat pots, and WHAAAT!!! Of course, as I assumed, the poor roots couldn't grow through the pot, I tore off the abomination and, like a prince 🤴on a white horse🎠, freed the girls.
I put them back in the classic pots (God protect them), fertilized them a little, placed them under the QB 120w turned on at 50%, and it looks like
