Dalian strawberry event: where to pick the best!

Tips:

1. How to choose strawberries?

When picking strawberries, it is best to choose them according to their color and size. Choose dark red medium-size strawberries rather than light red ones. For the same batch, strawberries with a smooth surface and fewer seeds are usually sweeter. Last, but not least, carefully check the surface of the seedlings to see if there are any traces of insecticide, which usually appear as white specks. Strawberries with strong seedlings, clean leaves, a normal shape, and of moderate maturity usually make the best choice. Try to avoid especially large or deformed strawberries.

2. How to pick?

It is easy to hook the sepals of a strawberry just like holding a wine glass, then to use a little force to separate them from the plant.

3. Be careful with strawberry plants

Strawberries are planted in rows. It is important to be extremely careful where you tread to avoid trampling on other plants and squashing the fruit.

4. Be careful of bees

Strawberry pollination depends on bees, so you will inevitably encounter them. Be careful not to get stung, and keep a close eye on young children.

5. Clothing

Because the strawberries are grown in a greenhouse, the inside temperature and humidity are both very high –– wear appropriate clothing.
