why are grocery store strawberries (around here we get Driscoll’s brand) big with a hard white interior? Why are they so different than homegrown strawberries?

Question

Even when overripe/rotten, the insides seem to be white. Compared to homegrown strawberries, they are flavorless. Are they a different variety?

Answer 1

I haven’t seen hydroponics referenced yet. NFT hydroponic grows changed the manufacturing space for strawberries.
