Everbearing Ozark Beauty Strawberry Plants - TOP PRODUCER

Bare root strawberry plants typically arrive in a dormant state, with their roots exposed and their foliage pruned. Once planted and nurtured, they will quickly establish vibrant, green foliage with distinctive trifoliate leaves, this only takes 3 days. Anything longer, and there is a problem - you need to contact us immediately.

As the plants mature, delicate white flowers emerge, eventually giving way to the sweet, red berries that are the plant's main attraction. If you receive anything you are not happy with, contact us immediately. Our number is on our information page, and you can also reach us via email through Amazon.

Planting and Growing Requirements:

1. Sunlight: Strawberry plants thrive in full sun, receiving at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

2. Soil: Well-draining, loamy soil enriched with organic matter (70% soil and 30% play sand is ideal) is perfect for bare root strawberry plants. Ensure the pH level of the soil is between 5.5 and 6.5 for optimal growth. Remember to hydrate your soil first.

3. Planting Time: Plant bare root strawberries in early spring or late fall, ensuring the roots are well-spaced and spread out in the planting hole. Hydroponically, you can plant them anytime, or grow them indoors.

4. Spacing: Space strawberry plants approximately 8 to 10 inches apart in rows, leaving 2 feet between rows to allow for adequate airflow.

5. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Drip irrigation or soaker hoses work well to keep the roots evenly hydrated.

6. Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as wood chips, around the plants to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the fruit from direct contact with the soil.

7. Fertilization: Provide a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring when new growth begins and again after the first harvest.

Before putting the plants outside, they need to be started in a controlled environment as a plug or in a pot first, just like the red cup picture above.

The plants will start to grow in 3 days. If they do not, there is something wrong, usually with the crown adjustment. The crown needs to be completely out of the soil and above the container opening. There cannot be a wall around the plant, as the container is not filled with soil.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to ensure your strawberry growing experience is a success.
