Last week mom and I came home from our morning walk and noticed that the new strawberry starts were all over; so what should we do with them? After getting the old trusty John Deere out mom in the 8310 and me on the old D, it didn't take long to get the ground worked into good shape.
Then we pulled out some of the cups that we had put new strawberry plants. Some had as many as 8 to 13 starts to one runner. We separated them and replanted.
So now the bottom area is full
as well as the top area, plus a few pots. We got a minimum of 47 new plants and more starts with no place to put them. (Might have to plow up the back yard.)
All these pots came from one small pot. (We also sent 12 pots over to Joe and Sujin's.)
So it just goes to show you, that no farming dilemma goes unsolved when you have a trusty John Deere!!
Holy cow! What are you going to do with 50 strawberry plants. Might as well get your self some farm land there is California.
