The goodness of strawberries, life brings life
- Since not long ago in our house we are eating and eating strawberries (Fragaria x anassa) in these autumn entrance celebrations. It is not a loose fact, as autumn is the most important working time of strawberry. The plantations to complete and rejuvenate the strawberry are done now. Where winter is red or black, now and in the coastal areas where you barely realize there is winter, until the end of the year. We are being told that the strawberry plant that is giving and giving the flower and the fruit has not come up with the time to do this work for the winter.
In our country, no drugs or poison are administered to plants. That's one of the keys to eating still and so cool. Swedish researchers Andersson GKS, Rundlof M and Smith HG published in 2012 Organic farming improves the success of pollination in strawberries: on an equal footing, 45% of flowers cultivated in conventional or industrial agriculture (with venoms and chemical fertilizers) were pollinated and fertilized under the two separate ecological cultivated sections. In other words, the insect that has to come to pollinate in ecological is also encouraged.
Albano S. points out that strawberry pollination involves beetles, chinches, wasps, bees, bumblebees, bumblebees and butterflies in a study in the Portuguese journal Advances in Horticultural Science in 2009. In ecological care, life is more abundant and brings more life: more pollinators, more strawberry, more health, etc. Organic strawberry has more flowers in the environment, more variety of plants, and that same brings more pollinators. Taking care of the environment, we will have better quality strawberries, and above all sweeter, more tasty and with a better taste.
More scientists have seen strawberries with other eyes. A project called citizen science has been created in the Spanish state. After spreading the strawberry plants and keeping them for a couple of months on the balcony or on the front of the window, samples of their leaves have been collected. The objective has been to measure the concentration of polluting metals and air quality that accumulate in strawberry leaves due to their magnetic characteristics. A large number of citizens of Vitoria-Gasteiz have participated in the study and the leaves of their strawberries say that there is a lot of pollution in the city (you will find it on the web Vigilantesdelaire.ibercibis.es.
There is nothing like planting plants to deal with pollution, and I said that now is the time to put strawberries. The plant, throughout the summer, will spread the blacksmiths and create a new plant in contact with the earth. Cut these young plants and plant them. Plant between the first or in a new place. Leave a distance of 30-35 cm and cover the bottom with pine leaves or pine feathers, thick.
Strawberry has a lot of kindness, and in the language of plants it means precisely that: virile goodness.
