Abstract

Eighteen strawberry cultivars were compared in a matted row system on a sandy loam soil in southwest Michigan in 1991 and 1992. The most productive cultivars were ‘Honeoye,’ ‘Annapolis’ and ‘Lester’ in the early season, ‘Glooscap,’ ‘Settler’ and ‘Selkirk’ in the mid season, and ‘Allstar,’ ‘Kent,’ ‘Jewel’ and ‘Blomidon’ in the late season. ‘Lester’ and ‘Selkirk’ rated relatively high in shelf-life characteristics. When whole berries were frozen then thawed, ‘Lester,’ ‘Selkirk’ and ‘Allstar’ rated highest in appearance.
