I am struggling to promote more growth. OK is a nightmare for me growing things. I am spoiled by my tropical weather of S. FL; I could easily grow Basil, lemon grass, citronella, rosemary, etc but no in OK, I have to contend with getting all four seasons in a day and IT HAS HAPPENED to me a few times after moving here 4 years ago lol
please teach me! lol I got two little berries and they seemed to be attacked immediately by these mini bug [tiny white] things before I can even eat one. Bawhhhhh!!!!

Anyone using nets to protect from squirrel and chipmunk? Beans or model you suggest.

I’m not jealous. The squirrels always get mine before they are fully ripe 🥲

Mine’s the exact opposite, I think I am averaging about 1 strawberry per 6 plants

I keep trying to grow the damn things, unsuccessfully

Nope. Plus, too many cats in my neighborhood to have squirrels.
I’m not jealous because mine look exactly like that! High five!

So I’m on year 5 of the same strawberry plants. They’ll grow wild into the rest of my garden/yard, but I transplant them back into the box with the rest and they’ve been doing great. Is there a lifespan on the plant? Do they stop producing as much after a few years?

Jealous of your strawberries but not of the people in your life lol

My grandma always had me till 1/3 of her strawberry bed every year. Basically it encouraged suckers to grow as each part of the bed only was allowed to grow for two summers before getting tilled again.
It seemed to be effective but curious to hear others thoughts about the validity of this.

Me! Ahahahaha. Those are cute 😭 We can’t grow it here because of climate but there’s a City who can grow strawberries in our country.
