What reading level is Strawberry-Growing book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The lava feeds within the bud ; in three or four weeks it pupates and emerges as a full grown weevil. The new generation of weevils feeds for a short time on the pollen of various kinds of flowers, in- cluding the strawberry, then disappears. °' 19- "Adult Control measures are limited mainly to preven- tion. Since the larva feeds mainly on pollen, the most effective measure is to grow pistillate varieties and use only enough plants of staminate sorts to pollinate them. The susceptibility of var...ieties is in direct ratio to the amount of pollen they produce. Staminate varieties which blossom early and profusely may be used as a trap crop and are plowed under after the weevils have congregated upon them. Many growers rely entirely upon profuse-blooming stami- nate varieties for protection — those that produce enough blossoms to bear good crops even though attacked by the weevil. In the home garden, covering the plants closely with muslin before they bloom will protect them. The attacks of this insect are so sporadic that most growers find it impracticable to spray.
