Title: Strawberry Planting
Post by: rutters on September 25, 2010, 10:27:53

Bought some runners from T&M which I put in shallow trays because the raised bed wasn't ready for them.

They are not only surviving but now have healthy looking leaves.

The problem is that the bed still isn't ready..do I leave them and put them in some time in spring or will it be OK to put them in in a couple of weeks?

thanks

It's fine to put in your strawberry plants in a few weeks, you'll get a better result if you plant then in autumn rather than spring, because the roots will have a good chance to develop more.
