Bare-rooted Strawberry Runners
Runners are a single strawberry plant that provide growers with a quality plant and lend themselves to a more traditional farm practice as well as table tops. They establish well due to their root system offering stored energy to the plant for establishment.
Due to their nature, runners are less uniform in size when planting but a good nutrition program early, helps to make up this difference. Runners have been a staple plant style within the berry industry and continue to offer a good plant option to growers.
Strawberry Plug Plants
Plug Plants are an established plant grown in soil-less media ideal for table top production. Due to this establishment, prior to arriving on your farm, plug plants offer a number of benefits to the grower including, planting efficiency, lower water use during establishment and uniform initiation within the field.
The benefits continue with earlier flowering leading to earlier fruit production. Plug plants can become vegetative, however this can be controlled through the nutrition program. Plug Plants a grown in a controlled environment reducing the disease exposure prior to planting giving it the best possible growth opportunity.
