Download or read book Strawberry Culture in California Classic Reprint written by Arthur Howard Hendrickson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strawberry Culture in California Strawberries propagate by means of runners. During the grow ing season, established strawberry plants send out slender stems 8 to 16 inches long in all directions. Each alternate node, if in contact with the ground, takes root and forms a new plant. The roots become established in the ground, and later the slender stem connecting the Old plant and the young dies, leaving the new plants independent and in turn ready to send out runners. These young plants, before they have produced fruit, are the most desirable ones for use in new plantations. The ease of gathering new plants Should not lead to carelessness in the matter of selecting the best stock available, and certain pre cautions Should be observed in collecting new individuals from old plantations. Plants from diseased or insect-infested areas should be discarded, and only clean, healthy ones chosen. Carelessness in the choice of plants Often leads to the introduction of diseases and insects into sections that may previously have been clean. Many growers prefer to buy their new plants from men who make a specialty of producing strawberry plants. These strawberry nurs eries are, for the most part, located in the foothills of the northern counties. The plants are usually grown on virgin land, and the soil is of such a friable nature that exceptionally strong and healthy root systems are developed. As these nurseries are somewhat isolated, the plants produced are usually free from injurious insect pests and diseases.

Download or read book The Strawberry and Its Culture written by J. M. Merrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Strawberry, and Its Culture: With a Descriptive Catalogue of All Known Varieties An annually increasing interest is felt in this country in the cultivation of strawberries. Every year brings with it new varieties, and a better knowledge of old kinds, new methods, and a clearer insight into the merits and defects of those heretofore practised. The old days when the Wood strawberry, the Early Virginia, and one or two now forgotten kinds supplied the market, and when a man who picked fifty boxes a day was held to be a large strawberry grower, are past and gone. We have now scores of varieties for each one of the old kinds, and single commission houses sell sometimes twelve thousand boxes a day. The magnificent success of Hovey in producing his Seedling stimulated many other horticulturists to experiment, and has led to the production of countless kinds, many of them of high rank. The war of words that was caused by the production of Hovey's Seedling has been succeeded by peace, or by a calm, and it has led to much good; for those who fought so bitterly with tongue and pen have attempted to work out their theories in the garden, and in so doing have produced new and most valuable kinds of strawberries.

This book was released on 2016-09-25 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The A B C of Strawberry Culture, for Farmers, Village People, and Small Growers: A Book for Beginners Friend root wants me to write a little pamphlet on straw berry culture. He says Now, do not say you would rather wait until you have had more experience. I should prefer to wait two or three years longer, certainly but still it would be true then the same as now, that I know only in part. Even of as simple a matter as growing strawberries, the wisest man can continue learning as long as he lives. Friend Crawford, who has spent his life among the strawberries, and is one of the highest authorities in the world, remarked to me the other day I am beginning to think that such and such treatment (different from what has heretofore been considered best) is what we want. Friend J. M. Smith, another noted berry grower of long experience, wrote me last fall that he made no pretensions to being perfect in his line - only to being one who constantly tries to improve from year to year. The writer will doubtless say some things that he would like to take back five years from now. But if he should wait five years before writing this little book it would be the same. The world is constantly moving on. I shall not attempt to instruct old growers, nor those who raise berries on a large scale. From them I have learned all I could, both on their places and at our institutes, and from their writings. I have picked out, to the best of my ability, what would be of the most use to me, growing berries in a small way. This, I hope, may be told so plainly as to help thousands of farmers and village people, and particularly the young people, who have not had a chance to learn much about the business.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Strawberry Growing It is more than twenty-five years since a complete book on this subject has been published. It would seem that this particular crop had been somewhat neglected except for the work of the horticultural experimenters at the various State and Government Experiment Stations, and through reports published in the farm papers of the work by practical growers. All this available material on the subject has been taken and "boiled down" in the shape of a practical book, in the interests of the general farmer and amateur gardener, so that they may produce a more than liberal quantity of this healthful, delicious fruit for their own use, and obtain more real pleasure and benefit from a small plot of land intensively devoted to this crop than from any other crop requiring the same amount of care and attention.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strawberry Plants That Grow, 1920 Again we are sending our Annual Booklet, Strawberry Plants That Grow, which is our Traveling Salesman. In it we shall endeavor to describe our location, our method of doing business, list of varieties and truthful description of their qualities. We are located in the section of the country known as the Great Fruit Belt of Michigan. This locality seems to be especially adapted to the growth of Strawberry and other Small Fruit plants. Our business was founded thirty-seven years ago, when we began growing strawberry plants in our present location, and for thirty consecutive years we have m'ailed our Annual Catalog to prospective customers. Until the season of 1918 the business was run under the sole direction and management of its founder, C. E. Whitten. At that time he was joined by his son, Roger C. Whitten, who has since been actively engaged with him in operating the business. It has always been our aim to grow and send out the very best plants that could be grown, and we have always taken great pains that our stock was true to name and unmixed and packed in the best possible manner for shipment. We expect to be able to continue our business along this line. Our satisfied customers who continue to order their plants from us from year to year, we con sider our very best recommendation and we appreciate this, and intend to retain these friends if honest treatment can do it.

During the last quarter of a century botanists have somewhat changed their ideas in regard to the number and distribution of the Species of the Strawberry, and while this may be of no especial importance to the praco tical cultivator of this fruit, still I have arranged the species to conform to the more recent discoveries of our botanists. As regards the culture of the Strawberry I find little to change and less to add. In writing the strawberry culturist (my first attempt at book making) I aimed to give the public the result of my practical experience in plain words. I have since that time experimented largely, but have learned nothing that induces me to change materially the directions therein given.
