Plant Care & Growing Tips

To ensure a bountiful harvest from your everbearing strawberry plants, proper care and planting techniques are essential. These plants thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal fruit production and plant health. The ideal soil for these strawberries is well-draining and enriched with organic matter. Before planting, it’s beneficial to amend your soil with compost or other organic materials to improve fertility and drainage. When you receive your bare root strawberry plants, prepare them by soaking the roots in water for approximately 20-30 minutes before planting. This rehydrates the roots and helps them establish more quickly.

Plant the bare roots with the crown (the point where the roots meet the leaves) at soil level, ensuring neither the crown is buried nor the roots are exposed. Space individual plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth. Consistent watering is crucial, especially during the establishment phase and throughout the fruiting period. Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. These plants perform exceptionally well in USDA Zones 4–8, demonstrating good cold hardiness. Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again after the first major flush of fruit to support continuous production and ensure a high yield strawberry harvest. Removing flowers in the first season after planting can encourage stronger root development, leading to even higher yields in subsequent years, making it easier to grow strawberries successfully.
