Sweet Evie gives its first harvest in June, which makes it an early ripening variety. In this case, the formation of ovaries occurs until autumn. The average weight of one strawberry is 20 g, but individual specimens can weigh up to 70 g. The yield per square meter is about 5 kg per season.

Cultivating varieties
Breeding method
Due to the absence of a mustache, Evi 2 seedlings are obtained by dividing the bushes. A strong, mature bush is dug up and vertically divided into parts so that each complete set contains rosettes of leaves and a full-fledged root. The resulting parts are planted in new places or instead of old plants more than 5 years old.
Disembarkation
Planting is possible in spring after frost or at the end of the warm season. The soil before planting is fertilized: 10 parts of humus, 2 parts of organic matter, 0.5 kg of ash. The place should be sunny. The beneficial effect of fertile soil will increase if legumes or spices such as dill, garlic, parsley were previously grown on it.
Sprouts are planted in the ground in rows. Between rows - 70 cm; between bushes in a row - 30 cm. For strawberry seedlings, dig holes with a radius of up to 30 cm, fill with water. Plant the plant until it is densely placed and lay the mulch on top.
Care
In arid climates, watered abundantly, in temperate - in an average mode. Drip irrigation is preferred. From the moment of planting, you need to repeat fertilization with organic matter and minerals every month.
The plant winters calmly at -22 degrees under the snow.But for lower temperatures, mulching with sawdust, humus, pine needles or other natural insulation materials is required. With any method of sheltering, it is necessary to cover the strawberry garden with a thick layer of snow so that the winter frost does not reach it.

The Evi 2 strawberry variety is vulnerable to late blight and leaf spot, snails and slugs parasitize on this strawberry. Late blight is fought with preparations containing copper or more complex fungicidal agents. Spotting is also prevented with specialized chemicals. For prevention from snails and slugs, the beds are fertilized with phosphorus, tobacco ash and ash.
