I’m not sure what what you’re asking but one good thing to do when you get strawberries is to put them in a bowl and cover them with about a half to a cup of vinegar and water. Let them sit for about 10 ministers then rinse them. It cleans them off and kills some of the stuff that makes them rot so soon. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the question and the vinegar answer. After washing, Dry thoroughly by laying berries on paper towels. No water will also deter mold. I would not wash strawberries before storage without the vinegar.
Thank you. I found out my whole garden has powdery mildew, late blight and scabs. Even my strawberry plants are getting powdery mildew. None of the leaves and 99% of the vegetables look weird. I dont know if it is safe to eat any thing because of the diseases. Also, should I spray with some copper fungi? I plan to be on top of all this next year? I am so bummed my whole garden was a disaster all summer. Thank you
Gail, I am so sorry to hear about your garden problems. Please call your county extension office re safety to eat. also check with them or a nearby university hort program about getting rid of the mold and remediation of your soil. Good luck.
Thank you. I kinda figured I would have to do this. Now my basil plant leaves have a ton of brown spots on them. It is destroyd. I sure am learning a lot this first year of gardening. Thank you all for all your help and suggestions. (Hopefully next year will be better!)
