I do not have a greenhouse but have a 4' x 2' raised bed framework (about 15ins high) with a cold frame build on top.
My question is do I fill the raised bed and plant strawberries direct in the soil/compost or would it be better to grow individual plants in a large (3litre?) pots on staging.
What are the advantages/disadvantages of each method?
I will still have another strawberry patch in the garden but I thought I could get some 'earlier' fruit this way, as well as use the cold frame shelving for my seedlings, etc.
Thanks
