If you were my neighbor, we’d be friends! Thanks for these quickies! Perfect.
He ha we definitely would be! Cheers.
Really like your kind and gentle style in your videos sir. All the Best.
Thanks Dan, appreciate the kind words.
Thanks, Jeff.
Cheers! 🙂
Excellent information, keeping those crowns clear of debris is so important! Checked long-range forecast, we will have peaks above freezing but still spots of -7C, so looks like very end of March, beginning of April before I can un-mulch my babies. Not that long but dang, it feels like forever. lol
Smart Sandy. Any big dips in temperature and I leave the plants all snug. Even under the old foliage is better than exposed when the temperature is super cold (plus wind chill).
I absolutely love your channel!
Thanks Tara, happy to hear!
Hi Jeff, great video with plenty of useful Information for Strawberries. Thanks for sharing and take care
i love your voice. i like to listen it :) İ hope i will have a garden like yours
Ha ha thanks, I hope so too! :-)
Thank you Jeffe! 🍓💋 My strawberries have been showing me that your awesome garden quicky came at the right time...🤭 it's time to buckle down and just do it all at once...🤷♀️unlike what I've been doing, which has been picking here and there 😂 Thank you for the motivation! 💪😎💓
Fingers crossed for a berry bonanza this summer!! 🙂
Just happened to have them replantedin a tower last weekend. 4 parents 11 siblings. They do well. Coming weekend some mulch and food will come in.
Nice! You're going to be loaded with berries this summer!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms thanks to you and your channel
@@ChaufMT more than happy to help!
❤hell yeah
:-)
Thanks Jeff! I did not have good results last time i tried strawberries, but I'm going to give it another go.😊 I'll watch your other vid on them, first!
You got this Patricia! Remember, year #1 isn't always the best in terms of yield....
Wow thanks !! I planted one strawberry plant in 2021 its growing all over the bed and into the grass. Any suggestions on how to grow them upwards onto a trellis?
Hey Ceecola, the best way is to let a few runners travel in the direction you want. Strawberries aren't a vine plant though. They will have to physically be planted on a trellis, best done through the runners.
Thanks 🙏
Cheers Johnny, thanks for watching man. 🙂
🤘

How can you tell which strawberries you have to fertilize?
Usually by name. If you know the variety name, then you can look up if its june-bearing or everbearing. If not, then just watch a year of fruiting. If they fruit all spring, summer, and fall, you have everbearing. If its one big summer bounty, then you have june-bearing. 🙂
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms 🤦🏻♀️ lost the markers...
Ok, Ty.
@@rachelstark2391 yeah, the fruiting cycle is the only way then. It's not like the leaves or any part of the plant is different...
Haha, you said doodoo 😂
Do you have any tips for white alpine strawberries?? This is my second year with them and I'm starting to see a million buds form with foliage being bigger than last year too.
I have 3cuft FoxFarm Ocean Forest Potting Soil. I need 7 cuft more for 5 10-gallon grow bags. I was going to mix all together. What do I need? Was going to add compost and black cow manure. Trying to keep cost down, but healthy. I have 5 tomato plants about 10" tall.
Hi Jeff,
thanks for the video.
One question: Does it have to be liquid fertilizer? I have heart non liquid fertilizer works only, if it is above 10°C also during nighttime. Can you confirm this?
Have a nice day!
Strawberries are darn near indestructible, the landscapers at apartments got a little too happy with the weed eater once about a pinhead of leaf was left they came right back.
Hi Jeff. Some of my strawberry plants that I overwintered have white mold. What homemade organic spray can I use on them to kill the mold. Thank you

I now got 7 strawberry patches and have new plans to probably double them
Also what’s the easiest crop to grow besides strawberries?
I'm unsure how you can get away with only fertilizing once per year when growing strawberries in containers whether they're June bearers or not. How is it that you can do that and not impact the plants?
At what point is it safe to repot my plants? I dont want to shock them!
Best to do when they are actively growing and all danger of frost has passed.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms awesome, thanks! A lot of them are the last runners from last year and are still in 4” pots. So I’ll wait till transplant planting time then!
@@HolyFamilyHomesteadWV yup, as soon as that soil warms up, you're good to go! Best of luck!
no guide
There’s no way that straw was on all winter!
Nope, because I am in zone 9...that would cook my strawberries and they'd never go dormant. But, many of my viewers are in much colder zones and since this is a video presentation....
Good to know I'm in Seattle and I still haven't put on the winter mulch. Just didn't get cold enough and now I'm wondering what to do if this coming snow doesn't last longer than 3 days and is followed by another warming period I might just have to remulch in a week or so never putting on the winter mulch.
It keeps frosting and then day nights rise into the 50s and 40s for a week or 2 all winter long so far.
I'm confused why did I think you lived in the Maritimes ? lol
Ha ha no idea Isabelle x2!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I'M thinking of moving to BC my mom passed on the 29 of january and i want to live in RV full time Yes that means no more gardening but I learned a lot from you :)
