I redid all my soil and put in good soil, added food to it, and the water comes on three times a day--still my strawberries are tart. Can you tell me why?

May 15, 2011Q.Ants in My Strawberries
I have a raised bed that has strawberries coming back from last year. I was weeding them and removing the straw I placed over it for the winter, and ants are everywhere. I may have disturbed a mound and not realized it when I was raking it, but I can't find where they are coming from! How can I safely kill them without hurting my plants? Chemicals are not an option.

May 27, 2011Q.Can I Use Plastic to Control Weeds in My Strawberry Patch?
I had a strawberry patch in the yard that became overrun with weeds. I took out the plants to start over with a raised bed. I'm going to be bringing in more dirt/sand. Should I put plastic or landscaping cloth down first to kill the weeds and grass, then put my dirt on top? Or will the plastic keep the soil from draining? Thanks!

Certified ExpertA.I would use landscaping cloth or layer of newspaper. This will suppress the weeds without interfering with the drainage.
