In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 3 as published. The names of five fruit parameters included in the table (weight, caliber, TSS, TA, and maturity index) were not correct. Furthermore, the data did not correspond to the respective fruit parameters, except for ‘firmness’ (the first parameter). The corrected Table 3 appears below.
The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

Table 3. Quality and condition parameters at post-harvest in fruits of sweet cherry (cultivar Regina) cultivated at two commercial orchards of southern Chile (Perquenco and Puerto Octay). In each orchard, trees were subjected to two foliar potassium (K) treatments: conventional K regime (four sprays during the season; K− treatment) or intensive K regime (seven sprays during the season; K+ treatment). In each location, the assays were conducted in two consecutive seasons. In Perquenco orchard, covered and un-covered trees were compared.

For each parameter, average values ± standard deviation are presented. Statistically significant differences between treatments, for each season and orchard, are represented by different uppercase letters (horizontally). Differences between season and orchard, for each K treatment, are represented by vertical lowercase letters based on the LSD Fisher multiple range test (p ≤ 0.05).
