Just picked (and eaten) my first Strawberry (Cambridge Valor) this year.

Very tastie.......now I need the other 249 plants to do their bit.

Summer is on its way

How long does it take for green strawberries to turn red. I've got some strawberry plants in the greenhouse that have produced fruit, but they've been green for weeks on end and don't look like they're going to turn red at all. Is there anything I should be doing?
