Berry Planting Instructions 
HOW TO PREPARE THE SOIL. The depth of plowing or spading should 
be 6 to 8 inches. Then the soil should be well pulveri 2 ;ed and levelled up 
smoothly. We recommend fall plowing; this gives the soil time to settle and 
the vegetation has time to decay. If the soil is not too soddy, spring plowing 
is successful. After the ground is plowed it can be leveled off with a roller 
or cultipacker. In other words, well drained soil which will grow such crops 
as corn will grow strawberry and raspberry plants successfully 
HOW TO PLANT STRAWBERRIES. For commercial planting we recom' 
mend that rows be about 3 feet 8 inches apart, and plants set about 14'18 inches 
m the row, requiring about 8500 plants per acre. Holes for setting plants may 
be made with a dibble, trowel or an ordinary spade. Do not plow furrows 
and put plants in them, as that leaves the ground too loose for good results. 
For garden culture the rows may be made closer and for hill culture the plants 
may be planted about 24 inches apart each way. 
REMOVAL OF FLOWER STEMS. Soon after the plants are set in the field, 
flower stjems are usually produced. These should be removed as they appear, 
probably before the blossoms open. 
The production of flowers and fruit at this time will decrease the vigor of 
the plants, and the production of runners. 
With fall bearing varieties the blossoms are removed until about July 1st, 
after which time the plants are allowed to fruit. Cultivate frequently to de' 
stroy weeds, and conserve the moisture, and you will be assured of a good crop, 
for Westhauser plants are healthy, strong and ready to produce fruit for you.
