My daughter just came home with a strawberry plant.

@Sempf My friend puts netting over hers to keep the birds and squirrels away

@catsalad @Sempf Water.

@Sempf The missus instructed me to set up three segments of gutter along the back wall. The filled them with soil and strawberry plants. It was too late last year to gauge the success, but we'll find our this year.

@Sempf 8-inch pot. Sandy well-packed soil, put the plant as deep as you can, NOT in daylong full sun. Partial shade actually works better. Later, plant it in a semi-shade spot in the ground.

@Sempf There's always the tried and true strawberry pot.

Pop the plant in there with good soil, water it well (but not too much).

If/when it tosses out runners, plant them in the additional space in the plot.

Done well, they should come back next year as well.

@Sempf a small balcony is enough...

@Sempf
De rápido y mal, yo uso cajas de leche con agujeros pequeños al fondo, primero le pones piedras de forma que creas una capa que sostenga la tierra con la que llenas por la mitad, primero metes la planta y le echas tierra , si sobrevive ya la puedes plantar en una maceta o en la tierra. Suerte

@Sempf This is what it looks like as of yesterday. There are small drainage holes in the bottom of the drainpipes, I don't know why there's no plants in the bottom tier (I let the other half do all the planting).
