“…In addition, Sánchez del Castillo (2014) indicates that hydroponic systems allow high crop densities, an adequate balance of nutrients, and water savings. For example, the density of strawberry plants grown in open field cultivation systems is 6.5 to 8 plants m 2 , while the planting density in vertical hydroponic greenhouse system can be increased up to three times (Ozeker et al, 1999). The strawberry plant can be produced in a vertical system, given its physio-morphological characteristics (Despommier, 2010).…”

Objective: A vertical hydroponic greenhouse system (VHGS) was designed and built to evaluat two strawberry varieties (Festival and San Andreas), in two planting densities per pot (40 and 54 plants/m 2 ) and three elevation levels (high, medium, and low). Design/Methodology/Approach: At 126 days after transplanting (dat), the Festival variety showed significant differences in the number of leaves and in the crown diameter. Results: The vertical hydroponic greenhouse system had a high fruit yield (21 kg m2 ): i.e., this productionsystem is up to 35 % more efficient than the open field cultivation system or the multi-tunnel greenhouse system. There was a positive correlation between the number (r 2 =0.89), diameter (r 2 =0.54), and weight (r 2 =0.40) of the fruits and the total yield. Planting density did not show a significant effect on plant growth, yield, and fruit quality. The vertical pot system did not show differences between elevation levels. This production system is a viable option for populations in places with a scarcity of water and to obtain fruits with guaranteed food safety.

“…En estos sistemas se puede recurrir al agua como medio de cultivo o diferentes sustratos, tales como lana de roca, fibra de coco o perlita; La fertilización es mediante soluciones nutritivas (Kratky, 2005). La densidad de fresa en suelo es de 6.5 a 8 plantas m -2 , mientras que en los sistemas hidropónicos verticales puede ser hasta tres veces mayor (Ozeker et al, 1999). Como los bastidores metálicos y arreglos en bolsas verticales, pudiendo producir la mayoría de los cultivos hortícolas, tales como lechuga, tomates y fresas (Benke y Tomkins, 2017).…”

La fresa (Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne) es un cultivo importante en México y el mundo. Para incrementar el rendimiento se han explorado varios sistemas de producción, como los sistemas hidropónicos. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el efecto de cultivares de fresa, densidades y estratos de plantación en sistema hidropónico piramidal, en el desarrollo de las plantas, producción y calidad de frutos. El estudio se realizó en Salinas de Hidalgo, SLP, México, en el ciclo primavera-otoño de 2017. El factor estrato impacto en el desarrollo y rendimiento del cultivo, con el estrato alto se incrementó el número de hojas, ancho de la corona, número de frutos y rendimiento (23.5 kg m-2), y cantidad de sólidos solubles en comparación con los inferiores. Las plantas en estratos intermedios fueron menos productivas, probablemente por la sombra causada por las de estrato más alto. La densidad y el cultivar no tuvieron efecto significativo en el desarrollo, rendimiento y calidad de fruto.

“…Soilless culture methods, used mostly for products such as tomatoes and peppers, have also been initiated be used for strawberry plants as well. The number of plants per unit area has increased especially via soilless culture applications; thus, the yield per unit area has also increased (Paraskevopoulou-Paroussis et al, 1995;Ozeker et al, 1999;Paranjpe et al, 2003a;Paranjpe et al, 2008). Fruit quality has also increased due to the fact that this type of cultivation allows for controlled cultivation.…”

Soilless growing is becoming an attractive option because of the contamination of agricultural land due to the use of excessive fertilisers and insecticides to get higher productivity per unit area and the yield advantage with soilless culture getting more yield per unit area than the conventional growing. Effects of two planting systems and various growing media on earliness, yield and quality (colour L, C, ho, the rupture of calyx, firmness, total soluble solid, acidity and vitamin C) in strawberry (Fragaria Ã— ananassa Duch.) cultivation under soilless culture was studied. Two different planting seasons i.e., summer and fall were chosen and growing media was composed of peat (Pt), perlite (Pr), cocopeat (Co), volcanic tuff (Vlc) and their combinations. Results showed that fall planting system was favourable in terms of earliness but summer planting gave better results in terms of total yield. Moreover, the first harvest of summer planting was February, whereas the first harvest of the fall planting was in December. Early yield in the fall planting comprised 36.0% of the total yield. The Co and the Co+Vlc media were more favourable than other media with regard to yield, earliness and fruit quality. In addition vegetation period was found from January to May and it was observed that as the total soluble solids values increased in fruits, acidity and vitamin C values decreased.
