The characteristics and indicators of the crop depend on the varietal characteristics of strawberries. When choosing a variety, you should familiarize yourself with its description, characteristics and reviews about it by experienced gardeners. It is important to choose zoned varieties that will show the highest result in home garden cultivation.
Best KSD Strawberry Varieties
The most high-yielding varieties of berry culture of single fruiting relate to varieties of short daylight hours (KSD). KSD strawberries form a large and high-quality crop, but only once a year. Such berry culture differs from repair varieties with smaller berries. It is noted that strawberries of these varieties have sufficiently developed whiskers, which facilitates the reproduction of plants.
Strawberries: variety selection
Strawberry KDS is represented by early, mid-early, mid-ripening, as well as late varieties, among which there are very promising for growing in many regions of our country.

The best large-fruited varieties
A feature of the best large-fruited strawberry varieties is the formation of a berry several times larger than the fruits of standard varieties, while the taste of garden strawberries is at a high level. The highest yield of such plants is observed in the second year after planting.
| Grade name | Ripening period | Plant description | Berry characteristic | Features |
| "Chamora Turussi" | Late ripening | Very powerful plants and developed peduncles | Large, with excellent taste | Even on poor soils forms a high yield |

The best repairing grades of NSD
You can achieve high yields with every hundred berry plantings when growing neutral daylight strawberries (LSD). The best remontant varieties of strawberries differ from traditional varieties not only in large crops, but also in high yields and transportability of the harvested crop.
| Grade name | Ripening time | Plant description | Berry characteristic | Features |
| San Andreas | Medium ripening | Powerful berry bushes with average indices | Large-sized, glossy, with a harmonious taste, average weight up to 30 g | From American breeders. It has a high level of return of marketable berries to the first wave of fruiting |

To improve the quality and quantity of the berry crop, it should be remembered that the most powerful and productive mustache strawberries in the first year of fruiting. Experienced gardeners share the secrets of strawberry cultivation, which can significantly increase the yield of berry crops:
- plants of neutral daylight berry crops should be replaced annually, and long daylight garden strawberries can be grown without loss of yield for three years;
- high productivity of the crop involves growing on fertile soils, high quality fertilizers;
- harvested varieties are required to be grown exclusively on flat and well-lit areas, clear of any weed vegetation;
- high-quality top dressing and watering must be supplemented by regular loosening of the soil and the removal of excess mustaches, which can reduce the quantity and quality of the crop;
