How to grow strawberries

1. Choose a pot

When planting strawberries, choose a slightly larger pot because they grow faster and can easily overflow the pot, but don't make it too deep. You can choose a clay pot with better air permeability because its root system is shallow and well developed.

2. Soil Selection

When planting strawberries, you can go to the market to buy some prepared nutrient soil, or you can prepare it yourself. It is recommended to use decomposed compost, river sand and garden soil in a ratio of 3:5:4, and then add a small amount of chicken manure and decomposed cake fertilizer to mix it as the base soil.

3. Planting

You can buy strawberry seedlings at the market and plant 2-3 seedlings in each pot. Too many will affect their growth. Generally, the seedlings you buy will come with soil, so you can plant them directly with the soil, with the arch facing outwards. When burying the soil, pay attention to the height of the soil to make sure it is consistent with the height of the soil ball.

4. Watering

After planting, water it thoroughly and place it in semi-shade. It will adapt to the new environment in about 3-5 days, and then you can transplant it to a well-lit place for maintenance.
