GROW SOME DESSERT
While you think growing
okra, spinach and other vege
tables in your backyard is
great, your kids probably see
your garden as a threat to their
goofing-off. Besides, kids aren’t
usually crazy about eating
vegetables, fresh or not.
Strawberries can make your
garden more popular with the
youngsters. Everyone likes
dessert and one of the tastiest
is strawberries. A garden with
strawberries can’t help being
impressive—even to the kids.
CHOOSING THE SITE
In choosing a site to plant
strawberries, avoid sandy,

rocky, eroded, or heavy clay
soils. A sandy loam soil with a
well drained subsoil is pre
ferred. Location should be on a
hilltop or slope and in a soil
that holds moisture well.
Select soil not planted to
vegetable crops during the past
few years. This soil will have a
lower nematode population.
Turn the soil eight to ten
inches, working in organic
matter. Summer cultivation
every three or four weeks
eliminates most weed growth.
About two weeks before
setting plants, turn the soil,
apply fertilizer in rows, and
prepare planting beds so they
will be firm on planting date.
Strawberry plants set
between September and
October in South Georgia pro
duce more berries than if set in
November and December.
However, plants set in Septem
ber may require irrigation to
survive.
In the Piedmont and moun
tain areas of Georgia, late Feb
ruary and March are good
months to transplant. In the
sandy soils of these areas,
plants may be set in the fall,
provided it is early enough for
them to develop a good root
system before freezing weather
occurs.
But only certified plants for
new plantings. Buy from repu
table nurseries and insist on
certification tags.
Varieties well adapted to
South Georgia are Dixieland,
Pochontas, and Missionary. Do
not attempt to produce ever
bearing strawberries-you will
be disappointed. These berries
are adapted only to areas of
higher elevations and cooler
climates.
More information on straw
berries is available at the
county extension office.
