Abstract
Abstract Strawberry, Fragaria × ananassa Duchesne ‘Redchief’, plants were grown in single plant-width rows on raised and flat beds at spacings of 13 cm, 50 cm, and 50 cm with runners set at 13 cm. Raised beds had more negative soil water potentials and more variable soil temperatures than flat beds. Plants on raised beds had deeper root distribution, poor runner-plant establishment, higher photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) penetration at one half canopy height in May, and earlier yield than those on flat beds. On raised beds, earliness of yield was enhanced by close spacing, and plants at the 13-cm spacing had more crowns per unit area than wide spacings. Total yield per unit area was not influenced by any treatment.
