Description
Summary:Strawberry as a cultivated plant species shows exceptional sensitivity to various abiotic factors in cultivation, especially the deficiency of nutrient elements (micro and macroelements), such as nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, boron, calcium, etc. Therefore, in the cultivation of strawberries is very important monitoring of nutrients in the soil and reacting as soon as symptoms of deficiency are noticed. The most common symptoms of deficiency of these nutrients in plants, including strawberries, are changes in color of leafs (yellowing or chlorosis, redness, darkening, etc.), deformation of plants and fruit malformations. Chlorosis as a symptom most often occurs in the case of deficiency of nitrogen, iron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum and zinc, while the symptoms of deformationsoccur mainly in the case of deficiency of boron (on fruits) and deficiency of calcium (on leaves).
