Zusammenfassung:Experiments were conducted over four years evaluating photoperiod and temperature conditioning of three to four week old ‘Sweet Charlie’ strawberry (Fragaria×ananassa Duch.) plug plants for off-season production in a vertical hydroponic greenhouse system in New Jersey, USA. The critical photoperiod for ‘Sweet Charlie’ flowering was evaluated by exposing plugs to 4 different photoperiods (7, 9, 11 and 12h) for 0, 7, 14 or 21 days followed by exposure to 0, 7 or 14 nights of chilling (
