Care Tips

Strawberries will generally produce 1 crop per year from May to the end of July though this depends on which variety you are growing. Strawberries will need a site that is in the full sun in well drained, light soil. They can be grown successfully in raised beds using plastic sheet mulches. To get them at their best choose a warm day to harvest and wait until they have fully darkened and completely ripened.
