How to select a suitable hydroponic planting system for hydroponic strawberries?

2023-03-06

How to plant strawberries more easily? Strawberry is a fruit with high nutritional value and economic value. Both adults and children are very fond of strawberries, so the market prospect of strawberry planting is very good. At present, the main methods of strawberry cultivation on the market are greenhouse promotion cultivation, semi-promotion cultivation, open field cultivation and other models. The contradictions existing in these models, such as continuous cropping in protected areas, and fixed facilities, have seriously restricted the sustainable development of strawberry industry.

Next, we will learn about the suitable systems for planting strawberries with soilless culture technology. Generally, we can choose to use hydroponic tower  system, strawberry gully and NFT system for planting.

Hydroponic System

The first choice is strawberry gully.

Strawberry gully is the best choice for planting strawberries.It not only takes into account the characteristics of production and sightseeing, but also is convenient for picking. Secondly, the equipment is flexible, not easy to break, and can be stacked arbitrarily.It belongs to a type of substrate cultivation system .Substrate cultivation is one of the most widely used methods in soilless culture. It is to fix the roots of crops in organic or inorganic substrates, and supply crop nutrient solution through drip irrigation or trickle irrigation. The cultivation substrate can be put into plastic bags, or laid in cultivation ditches or grooves. The nutrient solution of substrate culture method is non-circulating, called open-circuit system, which can prevent the disease from spreading through the circulation of nutrient solution.Substrate cultivation system is a green ,environmentally friendly and sustainable cultivation.

Hydroponic Tower system can also be selected.

Hydroponic tower system is a vertical planting equipment.this planting method is intelligence.Strawberry planting with the Tower system is vertical planting, and the automatic operation is more convenient. Relevant data shows that the nutrient solution provided in hydroponic vegetables is composed of water and nutrient elements. The nutrient elements of new hydroponic plants and vegetables come from soluble inorganic fertilizers, which are composed of the same molecules as the nutrients needed by plants to grow in the soil. Hydroponic vegetable technology can accurately control the nutrient content of vegetables.In addition to strawberries, this system can also be used to plant leafy vegetables such as lettuce and small tomatoes.

nft system

NFT system is also suitable.

NFT is a kind of hydroponic technique,which is very popular in family planting. NFT system is to place the roots of plants in plastic tanks or fixed channels, and provide necessary nutrients and water for crops through nutrient solution circulation in the channels to achieve the purpose of normal growth of crops.NFT system can effectively use vertical space and effectively reduce equipment erection costs and personnel management.

The emergence of soilless cultivation technology can effectively alleviate some problems of traditional strawberry planting. First of all, we can get rid of some restrictions of soil and do not use chemicals and pesticides, which can not only reduce the pollution of soil, but also produce green and pollution-free crops, which is more in line with the pursuit of modern people.
