Strawberries🍓 have their “moods” – they grow and fruit better after certain crops and worse or even very poorly after others. Good predecessors for strawberries are annual leguminous plants (peas, beans, but also lupins, fava beans, and vetch), root vegetables (carrots, celery, parsley, beetroot);😊
It is advisable to plant larger plantations after cereals, field beans, rapeseed, or mustard. Ideal predecessors (for phytosanitary reasons) are marigolds and buckwheat.
We do not recommend planting strawberries after strawberries (where the soil is “exhausted”, the break in cultivation should be at least 4 years), as well as after plants that are hosts to the dangerous pathogen from the genus Verticillium, such as tomatoes, potatoes, tobacco, cucumbers, raspberries, and cruciferous plants (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli)🧐
I also advise against planting strawberries after corn, which is a host to nematodes that damage the root system, and due to the possibility of a large number of larvae of click beetles, leatherjackets, and wireworms – after perennial leguminous plants (clover, alfalfa) as well, for the same reason, after permanent pastures.
