 Why does Victoria have berries dry and how to deal with it?

"Victoria" refers to the subspecies of strawberry. It contains many minerals and vitamins, which, in turn, have a positive effect on digestion and human health.It also has the effect of rejuvenation and fights against harmful viruses and bacteria in the body. "Victoria" - a rather capricious plant. It often happens that the berries dry. Why this is happening, and how to deal with it, this article will tell.

Growing conditions

Moderate warmth, moisture, light and food - that is what the ripe and fragrant Victoria needs. If you want during fruiting to find out red, but not green berries on a bush, then you should provide all the listed conditions. Transplantation is desirable to do once in 3-5 years. When disembarking it is important to ensure the distance between the bushes is 20-25 centimeters (it is better to do this in a checkerboard pattern).

Place for planting seedlings should choose solar and unventilated. Territories where shadow and cold wind dominate are not a place for this culture. Do not forget about the "treats". Strawberry loves phosphorus and potassium. If you are properly caring for plants, they are not harmed by pests and diseases, but they still do not bear fruit, then perhaps they just do not have enough vitamins. Ash is safe potash fertilizer, and phosphate flour is phosphoric.

Strawberry loves water, in dry land, the berries will not pick up color. This is a direct cause of wilting bush. Watering the berry is in the morning and evening, while the sun is not so hot. Water should flow exclusively at the root, and not on the leaves. Otherwise, the wet bush will receive radiation or just burn under the bright sun, because the water attracts it.

It is important to remember that you do not need to pour the berry. In this case, the root of the bush may suffer.

Fruit rot and fungal diseases can also begin. After that, you have to remove the bush (it is advisable to burn it) to prevent infection of the remaining seedlings. The soil will need to be sanitized. In the same year at this place to plant something is not recommended.

If you notice that with proper care, the berries still look dry, the cause may be diseases or pests. Consider the possible options.

Fungi and diseases

Fungus

Dry leaves with a reddish or brownish tinge are the first sign of a fungal disease. It is considered the most dangerous. If you find such a disease is as soon as possible to remove and burn the bush, while the fungus has not moved to other seedlings.

Gray rot

It is a brown spot. The fruit becomes soft and loses its taste. The rotted berry does not fall, but continues to hang, pulling all the juice out of the bush. The plant starts to dry out, and the fruit is covered with gray cannon. The disease is incurable and can spread to any other plant, so you should rather get rid of the bush. The soil should be treated Bordeaux liquid or a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

Spotting

She is brown and white. In the first version, round dots with a white center appear on the sheet. Over time, they increase in size and form holes. The second variant is manifested in the form of black and brown dots, which cover the sheet completely.

Late blight

This is a consequence of spotting. In this case, the leaves begin to fall away. Fruits rot and harden. Such a bush should be removed, and the land next to it should be treated.

Mealy dew

This disease begins to infect the leaves, and then - the stems, whiskers and berries themselves. During the period of fruiting with such a disease, the fruits will be clumsy and tasteless.

Pests

Medvedka

This terrible pest has the opportunity to spend the winter at a depth of 30 cm. In the spring, he can get out and spoil the whole crop. The only way to get rid of him is to make a bait. At a depth of 10-15 cm you need to bury a jar of water. As soon as you find that the pest has got caught, get rid of it.

Berry Tick

Because of these small translucent bugs, the bush does not grow well, and the berry does not pick up color. The insect feeds on plant sap, from which the leaves begin to turn yellow and curl. In the treatment will help the solution "karbofos."

Nematode

These are thin and transparent cylindrical worms.They also love berry juice, which means that the bush turns yellow, and the leaves curl. To prevent the appearance of worms between the rows of lime poured.
