Planting & Care Instructions:
Soak bare roots in water for 30–60 minutes before planting to promote healthy root growth.
Choose a sunny location that receives at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day for best fruit production.
Prepare well-draining soil with a pH of 5.5–6.5. Enrich the soil with compost or organic matter for best results.
Plant crowns at soil level, ensuring roots are spread out and the crown is not buried.
Space plants 12–18 inches apart, with 3–4 feet between rows for proper airflow and healthy growth.
Water regularly to keep soil moist, especially during dry spells. Avoid waterlogging as it can lead to root rot.
Remove flowers during the first year to allow plants to focus on building strong roots and foliage, leading to better yields in subsequent seasons.
Enjoy a steady harvest of large, sweet strawberries starting in the second growing season, with reliable production each year.
