What month is the season for picking strawberries?

The season for picking strawberries is from March to May.

Strawberries cultivated in the open field will be completely perfect from March to May every year, and can be picked at this time. Strawberries planted in greenhouses can be picked in March, and the picking period can last until May. There are some ripe strawberries, and the perfect time is not fixed, so the picking time is different.

When picking fruits, use suitable containers with smooth, flat and shallow inner cavities, and try not to use containers with too deep and rough inner cavities such as plastic buckets and bamboo baskets. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that fruits are classified and stored according to their perfection.

Precautions for strawberry picking:

1. Picking by stages: Because the maturity of each fruit on an ear of strawberry seedlings is different, it must be picked by stages and batches. Generally, it can be picked once every 1-2 days in the early stage of picking, and it should be picked every day in the high-yield period. If the fruit is not picked in time, it will rot and deteriorate if it is over-ripe, which will endanger the quality of other immature fruits.

2. Moderate picking: Generally, the picking time should be carried out before the dew is dry in the morning, until the continuous high temperature comes at noon or the temperature becomes cold in the evening. Because the temperature is low in the morning and evening and the fruit is hard, it needs to be stored and transported, which is conducive to picking; Around the afternoon, the temperature is relatively high, the fruit softens, and the peel is easy to be bruised and squeezed, which is harmful to the storage and quality of the fruit. Fruits picked when the dew is wet are perishable and not suitable for long-distance storage and transportation.

3. Careful selection, light handling and grading: strawberry seedlings have thin skin and soft fruit, which is easy to be bruised. When picking, handle it gently, handle it gently; No need to pull, so as not to break the fruit sequence, fruit pedicle and scratch the peel.
