June 12, 2021Q.Strawberry Seed Stratification
Just received seeds for strawberries (and multiple berry plants) that need stratification (three weeks?). Since it will be extremely late in the season to start growing once that is done, would it be best to wait until first part of next year to do this??

Certified ExpertA.Yes, you can hold them till next January. Start the stratification then for a month, then plant seeds indoors in February. Make sure your seeds are of the heirloom variety. Hybrid seeds won't grow true to form from seeds.

Sacramento, CAQ.How Do Get More And Larger Strawberries From My Strawberry Plants?
My strawberry plants themselves appear to be quite healthy with large dark green leaves and only one or two original leaves turning brown. But the berries, while tasting delicious, are few and far between and about the size of a marble. I live in the California Central Valley where we have hot dry summers and cool, hopefully rainy winters. I'm not really sure when the prime growing period is so I don't know the best time to fertilize. I dug composted manure into the soil when I planted them in March. If you can give me some pointers I would be very grateful!

Certified ExpertA.It sounds like they have, maybe, too much nitrogen and not enough phosphorus and potassium. This can affect fruit size, quality, and quantity. Sulfur may help, as well.

Certified ExpertA.It would depend on the type of blight that killed your tomatoes! Out of precaution, I would recommend solarizing your bed before planting in it. This article will help:

Certified ExpertA.It would not be advisable unless you clear out a whole section. There would be too much competition for nutrition and water, otherwise.
