Direct the Strawberries to Grow:

• You have two options: either buy strawberry plants from a store or grow them from seed. To ensure proper germination, always refer to the seed packet for guidance.
• Plants, if utilized, should be carefully transferred from their nursery pots to the sterilized bottles. The roots should not be compressed; they should be spread out.

Find a Place for the Jars:

• Set the strawberry plants in containers and move them to a sunny place where they will get 6 to 8 hours of sunshine daily. Put the pots in a sunny spot or under some artificial lights if you’re growing them inside.

Sprinkler system:

• Make sure the soil is always damp, but not soggy. Strawberry plants do best in slightly wet soil.
• Soak the plants from above and let the water drip down through the pores at the base.

Fertilization process:

• Follow the directions on the fertilizer’s packaging for feeding your strawberry plants a balanced liquid fertilizer. The typical frequency of application throughout the growing season is once every two weeks with a diluted fertilizer.

Trimming trees:

• Strawberry plants have the ability to develop runners, which are long stems that have little plants growing at their tips, as they mature. You can let some runners develop and take root, but if you let too many, it will sap the energy from the fruiting process. Reduce the number of runners to promote more fruit production.
