Technical Abstract: Five promising selections from the GCREC strawberry breeding program were compared with the industry standard 'Strawberry Festival' in consumer panels on February 2nd and March 9th. Several of the selections were rated equal to, but not higher than, 'Strawberry Festival' for appearance and/or flavor in February. Appearance and flavor of 'Strawberry Festival' decreased in March. Selection ‘00-51’ had the best flavor and selection '01-116' had the best appearance ratings in the March panel. Other fruit and plant characteristics of these selections will also be discussed.
