Are these the same as wild strawberries. I was recommended to grow these so i ordered some seed online late february. They grow slowly once germingated, but are coming on now and i think they are ready to plant out in a few weeks time. Can't wait for my first harvest. But with my newly planted garden strawberries i pinched out the flowers last year and now they are full of flowers, should i do that with the wild ones aswell.

I don't pinch the flowers out, though if you have quite a few plants it would make an interesting experiment to do so on a few of them to observe what happens.
