7 Tips for growing lots of strawberries in your yard.

 1. Pick a variety that is appropriate for your environment.

Choose a type that bears strawberries in June or that bears strawberries year-round, such as seascape, which produces large fruit from April to September. The harvest was produced by a June-bearing variety in just one month.

For a larger crop, plant strawberries at the close of winter or the start of spring. Seeds should be planted at a range of 8 to 15 degrees Celsius.

 2. Soil Preparation

Berries don't require a lot of soil. Early spring is when strawberries need a lot of nitrogen fertilizer or else the plant will generate more foliage and fewer fruits.

Use slow-release organic fertilizers like pelleted chicken, cow dung, and horse manure on ever-bearing varieties to provide the earth with continuous nutrients so it can continue to produce fruit.

 3. Optimum Spacing

When planting strawberries, make sure they have enough space to spread out and get full sunlight on the soil and roots. Strawberries do not like dry or wet soil.

4.     Mulching

Cover the plants with black plastic that has black mulch openings all over it. Use this technique to maintain roots at a comfortable temperature. The plant will stop generating flowers and fruit if the roots overheat. To keep the roots of strawberry bushes cool and moist, mulch them heavily with wood chips.

5.    Watering

Strawberry plants prefer consistently damp soil; they do not like wet soil. If the soil is clay, water the plant in the morning every day. If the soil is sandy, water the plant twice daily because sandy soil has much better draining. Always keep the stems moist.

6.    Pest Control

The little worm-like flying insects that attack strawberry plants lay eggs on the plants, which hatch into green larvae that eat holes in the fruit. 

Spray Spinosad on these bugs to control them. Spray the plants with Spinosad mist at least once per week by combining one tablespoon with one gallon of water. The vegetation is protected from worms by this natural spray.

7.    Picking Strawberries

If you don't pick the ripe strawberries every day after the plant starts producing fruit, it will eventually cease producing both strawberries and flowers.

To conserve energy for the mother plant to create more fruit, cut the runner plant.

How do you grow strawberries?

Purchase some ripe strawberries; the fruit's brown to black seeds are found on the outside of the flesh. When removing the skin with a knife, avoid going too far into the fruit's thin interior. The skin will be completely dried and the seed will be readily extracted by rubbing it against the dry skin after 2-3 days of drying in the full sun on clean tissue paper.

To ensure proper drainage, use a medium-sized pot with drainage openings and fill the holes with small stones. When planting seeds, combine 70% cocopeat, 30% compost, and 1 tablespoon fungicide. Then, without covering the seeds, scatter the mixture over the soil's surface. provide water,

Add water and drape a plastic wrap around the pot. Wrapping the moist will keep it unbroken and aid in germination. Put the container in direct sunlight.

It can take 12 to 30 days for strawberry seeds to sprout. Once the seeds have begun to germinate, remove the covering. 

Transplanting 2-3 inch seedlings into individual pots with three to four baby leaves will promote healthy development. For planting, a 6–8 inch pot is sufficient. Make sure the earth drains well. Mix 50% garden soil, 30% compost, and 20% cocopeat for the greatest growth. After planting, give the plant enough water and maintain it in direct sunlight.

Strawberries require 6-7 hours per day of direct sunshine. If birds steal the fruit, cover the shrub with bird nets.

When to Plant Strawberries?

Plant strawberries at the end of winter or the start of spring. Seeds should be planted at a range of 8 to 15 degrees Celsius.
