Planting and Growing Requirements: Before putting them outside they need to be started in a controlled environment as a plug or in a pot first. Like the red cup picture above.
1. Sunlight: Strawberry plants thrive in full sun, receiving at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily. LED lighting is best. Window sill lighting usually only gets 2 to 3 hours direct sunlight.
2. Soil: Well-draining, loamy soil enriched with organic matter ( 70% soil and 30% play sand is idea) is ideal for bare root strawberry plants. Ensure the pH level of the soil is between 5.5 and 6.5 for optimal growth. Also, hydrate your soil first.
