    Hello, a few weeks ago I cut back my strawberry plants ,ready for next year. But in the last few weeks they have doubled in size! Should I cut them back again or simply leave them alone?
    Cheers

    I'd leave them alone, the frost will curtail the new growth but the new foliage will protect the crowns. When all signs of frost are gone in the new year cut out and dead foliage and give them a good potash feed.

      Hello, helly, and welcome to the Vine! I guess the warmer (ha ha!) weather has brought your strawberries back on - but I don't know what you should do about it!

      Don't worry - plenty of clever fruit growers around here who'll be along to help...!
