Product Information

Whiskey barrels sport a unique, rustic appearance and sturdy design that will stand the test of time. This is an eco-friendly choice, as you’ll be reducing waste and reusing materials, and one that will add appeal to any garden design. Adding drainage holes at the barrel’s base will prevent waterlogging and promote healthy strawberry plant growth. Badgers: These animals are natural foragers. Badgers spend large parts of their evening with their noses to the ground looking for worms. They will dig and forage, maybe even eat, in the strawberry patch. This means a fruit cage would stop them from being able to access them. Like with most things you grow in your garden, strawberries will always have the potential to attract pests. a b "Commercial Postharvest Handling of Strawberries ( Fragaria spp.)". Extension.umn.edu.

Advice for buying strawberry plants

Sweetness, fragrance and complex flavor are favorable attributes. [13] In plant breeding and farming, emphasis is placed on sugars, acids, and volatile compounds, which improve the taste and fragrance of a ripe strawberry. [14] Although often sweet tasting, strawberries actually have relatively low sugar levels compared to other fruits. Esters, terpenes, and furans are the chemical compounds having the strongest relationships to strawberry flavor, sweetness and fragrance, with a total of 31 out of some 360 volatile compounds significantly correlated to favorable flavor and fragrance. [14] [15] [16] In breeding strawberries for the commercial market in the United States, the volatile compounds, methyl anthranilate and gamma-decalactone prominent in aromatic wild strawberries, are especially desired for their "sweet and fruity" aroma characteristics. [15] [16] In addition to being consumed fresh, strawberries can be frozen or made into jam or preserves, [34] as well as dried and used in prepared foods, such as cereal bars. [35] Strawberries and strawberry flavorings are a popular addition to dairy products, such as strawberry milk, strawberry ice cream, strawberry milkshakes/ smoothies and strawberry yogurts.
