Take some precaution to deter slugs as they will love to attack your strawberry plants (for example use slug pellets). They will continue to provide fruit for two to three years following planting. Late autumn and spring planted bare rooted specimensare better with blooms removed in May to build strength for future seasons heavy crops.Strawberries require planting in rich soil and in a sunny position, planting in rows. Plant 30cm deep and approx 45cm apart, leaving 60cm between each row. If planting in containers plant five-six plants in each pot and water daily during the growingseason.
