Intensive strawberry growers can buy strawberry plants which have been ‘programmed’ to be ready in a certain number of days. The young plants are frozen for a certain length of time depending on when they are required to be ready. These plants were called ‘60 day strawberries’, which means that they will fruit 60 days after planting – and they did!

The strawberry variety Elsanta suits intensive growing, and are the most widely grown variety in Europe. The intensive production involves growing the plants through polythene and feeding them through the water pipes.
These Elsanta 60 day Strawberries are very good quality, and they have not been treated with any chemicals:
- The polythene keeps the weeds down.
- The table legs stop attacks from slugs.
- As the strawberry plants are raised on the table tops, fresh air blows around them and seems to keep diseases at bay.
The Elsanta 60 day strawberries, planted on table tops this year, will produce more strawberries next year.
