Tips on growing strawberries?🍓 #strawberry
I want to try growing strawberries....but I can't find strawberry plants anywhere🫠so I will have to grow from seed.
Does anyone know when the best time is to sow their seeds is? And if it's better to start in a small container with a humidity dome over it or straight in the ground?
It's early autumn now🍁, so I will maybe have to wait😞 If I am too late for their sowing season, does anyone have any recommendations for easy veggies or herbs that I can grow now in a container?
I will also be planting the strawberries in a container if that changes anything about the soil I'll need. From what I have read, it needs to be well draining, have compost, and have a good layer of mulch on top. Is this the same for container growing??
Any tips and advice will be very much appreciated🌸I really want it to work out this time and honour poor Adri😐
She died because I didn't water her for 7 days😶 but I now have my first baby tomato gowing, so I've got really good motivation to actually go water the plants.

Hi, Dominique! I'm glad you found Greg!
I've attempted to grow strawberries from seed several times and I've given up. 😆
In my opinion, they're hard to raise BUT having them in a humidity dome is the way to go. (:
We used to have a group of us growing from seed on Greg and we used the community #CitrusGrandPrix -- maybe you can get that going again!
Please keep us posted. We are rooting for you!

@Araceae I haven't bought the seeds yet 😅I'm going to go to the greenhouse on Saturday. But @sarah10orio has made me weary. I'll ask the people at the greenhouse if they know where to buy a grown plant. If I can't find one, I'll let you know the variety.
