@epicgardening: These two 🍓 tips have helped us grow bigger, better strawberries for a longer amount of time in the season. First, removing #strawberry flowers. It sounds counterintuitive, but it works...IF you do it right. First off, you have to know what type of strawberry you have: June bearing or everbearing. For June bearing strawberries, remove flowers until the beginning of May, then stop. This allows them to grow more leaves to dedicate more energy to flower production in June through July, when these types produce. For everbearing #strawberries, you can prune flowers off for a bit longer, up until mid to late May. Next up, runners. You don't HAVE to remove these, but if you're growing in a vertical system like we are in this video, there's no point in keeping them. They won't root and propagate into new strawberry plants since they're hanging in air, so just take them off. You can toss in some water and root them to make new plants for next season, though!
