Strawberries are one of the easiest fruits to successfully grow in containers! Learn how to plant and care for container strawberries and enjoy sweet, sunripened berries no matter where you are gardening. Strawberries can easily be grown in small pots or large planting containers you can choose your container to suit the space you are growing in.

*Container size 1/2 to 1 gallon pot (68" pot) per 1 plant
*Space plants 1012 inches apart in a larger container
*Strawberries must have good drainage select planting media that is welldrainage
and make sure your container is permeable or has drainage holes
*Optimal planting media is rich in organic matter, excellent drainage and just
slightly acidic with a pH of 5.56.5
*Strawberries will have the best yield & flavor when planted in full sun, but can be
grown in part shade
*Feed plants with an allnatural, balanced fertilizer. I used a 434 in this video.
Avoid excess nitrogen as this leads to excess foliar growth and soft fruit.
*Provide with at least 1" of water per week
