Tips to Consider When Buying a Strawberry Planter:
Before you pick the right one for you however, it’s important to consider some different things to help make sure it’s going to live up to your expectations.
Watering: Strawberries need watered quite often. With most planters you can do a few things to help water your plants evenly, as outlined in our tips on How to Grow Strawberries in Strawberry Pots. Soil should always be moist, but be careful not to over water – strawberries do not like that either!
Number of Plants: With strawberry planters, they typically will work well but not yield as much as if you were to plant them in the ground. This is because in the ground you will want to keep them at least 12 inches apart for maximum productivity, but in planters they do not get that much space.
Choose the Right Berries: Since strawberries are self reproducing, they will usually grow tendrils and start to spread. When growing them in pots, it is best to choose a variety such as Alpine Strawberry seeds or another that does not grow roots as rapidly. Their root systems are shallow, but they do spread to create new plants, and so that’s another thing to consider when planting in a pot or another container.
Now that you have some ideas on where and what kind of strawberry pots to buy, we hope once you plant them you’ll send a picture to us so we can show it off in our upcoming gallery coming soon!
