Have you gotten any fruit yet?
One time... I tossed a bunch of store bought strawberries in the compost... had seedlings come up...
When they eventually produced fruit.... fruit was bland.
I dug those plants out and started over with commercially produced plants.
The seed grown plants were too aggressive, lots of runners, demanding lots of space... Probably would have been worth back-crossing into something with better taste... I sure could have fed the deer and rabbits on that patch and not missed the plants at all!

I don't have gotten fruits this year.
They germinated on february.
They however did a lot of stolons.
I will see that they will have given at spring.
I don't know what is the variety but the most pupulare here are tenira and elvira

i've found that the everbearing plants have less runners, but in the end they don't really produce very well here for any crop other than the one that happens with the rest of the strawberries in June. it gets too hot and dry and i don't have enough time to really keep after them in the middle of the summer so they don't do well for fruiting again until the next summer.
this year the strawberries in my patch were raided so much from animals that we got one picking for a few servings and that was it. the whole patch needs to be renovated and again, i just didn't have enough time with the other projects that were going on this year. i hoped to renovate it this early fall so it would be ready for next spring. no luck there. so i don't expect much of anything next season either.
the comment about being able to feed the deer and not miss the plants struck me as quite funny and sad as i used to have four large strawberry patches here (of which three were outside the fenced gardens) and the deer have eaten them all back to nearly nothing over the past few years ever since they found them. i won't spend the work on growing strawberries again until i can fence better. many thousand plants gone.

Sorry for you!The deeers like strawberrys!
The weather is not normal: some strawberrys plants tryed to get flowers.I think that it is about the everbearings plants.
For us its the slugs and birds who eat the stawberrys before that we found the time to picked them.

For the second year the plants are more productives. The fruits have a stranger maturation. They started to whitened and they passt slowly at the red. I think hase sown F2 between a white znd red strawberry. The taste is stayed 10 minutes in mouth.  |
