Default Strawberries :)
Hi Everyone!

I am sooo happy that we put that fleece stuff over the strawberries and THEN about 5 minutes ago, I had the first one ! It was quite small but that made it sweet so it didn't need ANY sugar! mmm

luvin all

How many have you got? - I'm packing up your jiffy bag tonight and I can put a few strawb runners in as well, if you want them - they won't fruit until next year but it looks like I am going to have loads so just shout if you do.

My strawberries have just about finished now, had a real good crop from them though. Am going to have another bed next year and put in some later fruiting ones.

Hi, my crop is all but gone, got one flowering plant left all the others have gone but i have loads of runners, what do you do with them?

I have anchored the ends of the runners in the soil, and some apperas to have rooted, is this correct?

I'm no expert but yeh that sounds right you can also put pot with compost underneath and let it root in that then you can plant elsewhre

I grew some in the greenhouse in growbags last year and got some small ones off then I put them in the allotment, this year I have had a good crop, some really large ones too, very nice.
