You'll be able to tell how successful you've been quickly, as the small fruit forms just behind the flower, I think they start to show in around a week.
I'd give them a liqiud feed as soon as the blossom starts to drop, the grow bags will be pretty depleted by now.
yes thank you i had that in mind, i did feed last year. i understood that three years was the optimum time to keep them in the grow bags they look very healthy so fingers crossed for an early crop
i thought i would share my greenhouse strawberries with you
Strawberries grown undercover fruit sooner than those outdoors. Looking fab !
had a handfull for breakfast the other day always pot up a few and put in green house for early pickings yours look great making mouth water
thank you, just a little bit more sun
