Frequently asked questions
When do you sow strawberries?
Directly into the bed plant may or august — there is no indoor phase for strawberries.
When are strawberries ready to harvest?
June-July (the year after planting), in a typical year for this climate.
Do the strawberries dates change with the weather?
Yes — the window follows the frost dates of your plot. A coastal garden runs a week or two earlier; an inland frost pocket later. The published windows are the reference, your soil thermometer is the truth.
