Alpine strawberries from late April to today

Sowed the seeds mid-April, and had the first sprouts on April 24. The last pic is today.

The only trouble so far has been fungus gnats. Applied nematodes 10 days ago, which helped a lot, and have some hypoaspis soil mites ordered.

Before nematodes, I let it dry a couple inches down and bottom watered, which took all day. Nematodes require moist conditions to move around, so I've been wetting the top soil every two or three days.

I fertilized for the first time with Fox Farm Tomato and vegetable a few days ago. Other than that, I included worm castings and plant starter in the soil mix. Soil is Miracle Gro potting soil with a few handfuls of pumice, perlite, and orchid bark. Very light and fluffy, actually.

Growing food indoors has been a big goal. Very excited to taste them if they give me some flowers. Seeing how fast they've grown feels like an accomplishment in itself, though, so I'll take it as a win.
