Strawberry


Strawberries always an accompanying legend, the "Strawberries and blood"of the '70s to the stereotype "strawberries and cream" to accompany champagne and tromolagniko "Do not eat the big strawberry, is within hormones.
Because normal burst bit in the market at a time when we are tired of winter fruits (apples, pears, oranges), while not developed in the summer, but also because they keep for a while, is very attractive

But we need to know to choose.
Firstly, all the strawberries we find in the market is fruit hybrids - there are infinite.
Fortunately, however, hybrids of recent years, other than "convenient"for the market, ie large fruit, resistance to diseases and ... movements, have other, more friendly to us characteristics.
Namely, aroma and taste.It is best to be patient and do not buy strawberries until early April.Do not be afraid.
We said, every thing in his time.
In winter, low sun, combined with high humidity makes the plant more prone to botrytis - something like mold - which to defeat, you need spraying. Ideally, the best strawberries would be those coming out in May and grown outdoors, but where to find them?
Do you prefer small or medium-sized fruit.
The first fruits coming out of a plant is large, but often hollow and insipid. Also, there is likely to result in increased lubrication.
Also, choose those with bright purple color.
Strawberries do not ripen - as, for example, tomatoes - after the harvest.
So choosing red strawberries, you ensure that it will be sweeter.
