Tips to Grow Strawberry:

  1. Arrange good quality strawberry plants with a quality rootball.
  2. The planting site must be well-drained. Soil should be slightly acidic.
  3. Make planting holes deep and wide enough to accommodate the entire root system without bending it. Don’t bury the crown (central growing bud) of the plant. Roots should not be longer than 8 inches. Trim them if necessary.
  4. We can add compost for better growth.
  5. Fruit is typically ready for harvesting 4-6 weeks after blossoming. Harvest only fully red berries, and pick every three days.
