The effects of mother plant spacing of ‘Redchief’ strawberry on yield were evaluated with two cultural systems: runnerless and matted row. In both systems, the plots with narrowest between-row spacings (30 cm for runnerless rows and 45 cm for matted rows) had the greatest yields per unit area. Decreased within-row spacing decreased berry weight and number per plant but did not affect yield per unit area. Because of high plant cost for the runnerless row system, the matted row system was clearly superior for ‘Redchief’ in our trials.
