There's no evidence anywhere suggesting removing flowers in the first season increases yield in following seasons. Has anyone found any definitive evidence?

Thank you. I have 50 new plants and you helped me plant 25 of them today. I appreciate all the info. Your tempo is perfectly fine. Great information!!

Best video on the process of handling bare root strawberries. Your pace is perfect. Plenty of info without a lot of filler. You should have more subscribers. You just added one.😎🐿

You added a lot of helpful, extra information - thank you! The other videos I’ve seen just show how to plop them in the ground. I’m brand new to this.

I've watched so many learning with my patch wish I would have seen this sooner! Much love 💚

Hey, nice video. I just got a bunch of bare root strawberries. This was helpful.

[nancymcduffie]

Enjoyed very much all your words of wisdom, you answered all my questions about growing strawberries! Thank you!

[changya]

Thank you for very detail information. May I ask what brand that fungicide is?

[EricaGoings]

Awesome video! Thank you. I don’t use bare root strawberries yet but my plant is dying badly so I think I’ll have to break it down to bare root. This was helpful!

[AlpacaRenee]

Thank you! Exactly what I needed to get my BR strawberries off to a good start!

I bought 10 sequoia strawberry roots that had damp soil around them, i soaked them in water, but not one of them has a single green leaf on it before planting..i just planted today..if the crown is all brown, does that mean the plants were dead when i bought them? Im not sure im worried now because everyone i see online their strawberries have green Leaves!

I got mine and didn’t have a place for them ready yet. I forgot about them on the counter in the original bag for 3 days and then opened them and put them in the fridge in that original bag. There was no newspaper or moisture in the bag at all. I didn’t know there was supposed to be.

About 5 days after I got them, I planted them straight into their spots. Without soaking or washing them, without any fungicide.

The next morning the little stems on them changed from pale color/white color to reddish purple color and looked stronger already after just one night in the dirt.

I’m a bit worried now 😅 but hoping since they perked up that some of them will survive.

Also it was hard for me to get them planted right at the crown, some have a bit of root showing up top. I’m not sure if I should add more soil or compost, because I worry about it covering the crowns 🫣

Thanks! Pretty good video. I'm going plant them in the ground with the ones growing wild.

I have 25 strawberry plants each in 2 gal grow bags on a drip system. What is the ideal drip size for watering each week?

[mrssandlin]

Your video is excellent and to the point❤

[Mardon]

Ok, you mentioned that you can get the roots out of dormancy by soaking in water up to a couple of hours. If you DON'T soak them and put them immediately in the ground, pots or whatever you plant them in, does that kill them?

[lmullens]

I will say that we stored bare root strawberries in the fridge because we were headed out of town for a week. Unfortunately, the fridge got down to freezing while we were gone & we lost them all. I think them waking up with warmth is better than risk of freezing, myself.

My package says not to plant wire potatoes have been previously planted…ugh. Now where shall I plant as my areas have all had potatoes

[deplorableinyogapants]

Brilliant! Thank you for your knowledge!

Thanks for that overview. I have one question. What is the ideal location to plant the strawberries in the garden.

I live in Florida. My strawberries started off fine in a shaded area of the garden. But the iguanas discovered them and devoured a few leaves. I covered the towers with a net and moved them to an area where it was sunnier. I watered them every other day. I then noted the leaves died off from the crowns. I only have one left with leaves. This was on the top level of the tower.

What do you think is the cause of them dying and what do you suggest is the solution? Thanks for your help.
