Strawberries begin to ripen four to five weeks after the first flowers open and continue to ripen for about three weeks. Propagation is possible by runner.Planting And CareClear away dead foliage as this can be susceptible to pests and diseases over winterStrawberry plants need to be left outside for the autumn and winter as they require a chill period to initiate flowering.Strawberries are best planted in the spring or autumn.Sow seeds thinly in March or April in a fine soil-less mix. Simply press the seeds into a moist medium in the starter trays. Keep moist until plants emerge in 2-3 weeks.
