Summary

Three irrigation treatments (none, drip, and sprinkler) and eight rowcover treatments were evaluated for their capacity to provide freeze protection for strawberries. The period under study included 20 freeze events, two events with minima of -9.5 and -10 deg C. All strawberry plants recovered from freeze damage and total-season yields were similar with all irrigation methods and rowcovers. Detailed results are given in the article.
