The aim of this work was to study the effect of ethrel {ethephon}, GA3 and uniconazole on strawberry plants. The results indicated that GA3 application increased plant petiole. GA3, ethrel and uniconazole increased total carbohydrate percentage in the foliage of strawberry plants. GA3 at 10 ppm or ethrel at 250 ppm increased the number of flowers and the monthly and total yield. TSS was not affected by growth regulators.
