Strawberries
The Strawberry growing media from BVB Substrates is tailor-made and produced to fit the exact needs of each grower. Our Sales Advisors offer advice on the most suitable solutions taking into account factors such as crop requirements, water quality, cultivation and irrigation methods, and sustainability requirements.
Strawberry growing methods
There are several methods for growing strawberries, often in combination with different plant types. Strawberries can be grown in gutters or containers. Some varieties are cultivated for a short period, while others require a longer, more continuous growing cycle. Certain varieties can produce fruit almost all year round.
Each growing method requires a tailored growing medium. BVB Substrates’ strawberry growing media are composed of high-quality raw materials. We offer products with a stable structure, providing the right balance of water retention and air content to support consistent crop performance.
Our Sales Advisers can help you select the most suitable growing medium for your situation.
