Strawberries are low-growing plants that thrive in well-drained, fertile soil with plenty of sunlight. They prefer slightly acidic soil and benefit from regular watering, especially during flowering and fruiting. Proper spacing ensures good air circulation, reducing the risk of disease and promoting healthy growth.
Mulching is an important practice for strawberries. A layer of organic material helps retain soil moisture, suppresses weeds, and insulates the roots during colder months. Mulching also keeps the fruit clean by preventing soil from splashing onto the berries during rain or watering.
Regular feeding supports strong growth and continuous fruit production. Balanced fertilizers, rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, encourage robust foliage, flowering, and fruiting. Removing dead leaves and old runners maintains plant health and improves airflow.
Some plants are capable of producing fruit almost all year with proper care. These plants flower and set fruit multiple times throughout the growing season rather than producing a single harvest. Extended fruiting requires consistent watering, fertile soil, and occasional feeding to support ongoing blooms.
