14 Gardener Tips on How to Care for Strawberries

June 6, 2019 | More: Fruits| Plant Care

Strawberries are one of the most popular types of berries which can be found in gardens throughout the world, and there are a thousand possible uses for it. From strawberry shortcake through to strawberry jams and preserves, there’s a lot to be gained from the plant’s harvest – including a long list of health benefits owing to the fact that they’re much higher in vitamins and minerals compared to fruits that are twice their size.

What could be better than picking strawberries out of your very own garden throughout the year? Any gardener knows that few things are as satisfying as literally picking the fruit.

Strawberries grow happily in most climates under the right conditions, and they’re one of the easiest berry plants to cultivate if you’ve never worked with this particular plant type before

Here are 8 great gardener tips on how to care for strawberries from planting through to harvest.

1. Understand Your Type

The first step to planting strawberries in your garden for the first time is to find the right type of strawberry for your needs – and most people are surprised to find out that all strawberry types aren’t quite alike.

For example, did you know that there’s a specific variety of strawberry which ends up white instead of the usual berry pinks and reds you’d expect? A lot of gardeners didn’t!

Establishing what type of strawberry you have can save you a lot of surprises later on when it comes to the harvesting phase and you aren’t sure what’s come up: Yes, it happens even to more advanced gardeners sometimes, too.

If you harvested the seeds from another plant, it should give you a better idea of what to expect. From anything else, a simple online search can tell you more about the type you have before you grow it – and luckily, all strawberry types grow happily under more or less the same conditions.
