the last 2 years i didn't grow strawberries, we put in 2 beds this year..i'll remember this..dig the shirt too..spot on
"green side up, thats the important part." made me burst out laughing. It is true that sometimes the simple things need to be stated as they are taken for granted, like jm's story of the beans.
Your shirt has the best information ..... besides the strawberry parts
It makes his video at least 5% that much better.
NASA is druish
With four amazing children, pulling out is not a concept I'm familiar with. But I'm here to learn.
Hahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the laugh😉
this is a good video if you actually want the path of least resistance. if you dont mind a tiny bit more resistance than you should definitely dont let them multiply so much. first of all making runners non stop requires a lot of energy the plant could use otherwise. cutting away runners until harvest is done still gives more than enough runners if you want to dig up every year. also generally strawberry plants produce about double the amount of berries in the second year and a bit less than tht the year after. so by throwing all in one bin you dont know which are first or second years and potentially costing you a lot of harvest
Love this! I started some strawberries in pots and since they did so well in Santa Fe I’ve decided I’m going to replant in my beds. The old dry stuff is a source of mulch for the new plants. Strawberries are such wonderful fruit loaded with vitamin C and lots of other great nutrients! Thanks!
Thank you for these videos. You were a big influence in our backyard. Stay safe, stay healthy, and grow on!
I like your efficient yet thorough approach. Strawberries are not something we need to overthink, we just need to do. I will be moving my strawberries I started at my elderly parents' last year to a far closer community garden.
I was worrying about moving my perennial streawberries this year (zone 3a) Now I'm gong to be a heartless witch and move those miserable SOB's to a sunnier spot.
Mwah ha ha haaaa!
Yukey lmao yea get aggressive !
I did it! They screamed horribly as they were torn from their siblings. I crammed the little bastards out of a 3 foot bed and into an 11 foot bed.
They got over it. They are popping up fresh leaves. I had a nice whiskey. They got the water.
How did this turn out in the next year? Curious because I am in roughly the same zone. Did you rip them up in the spring or the fall? In Canada so winter is harsh where I live. Any tips appreciated!
I love your no-nonsense approach to gardening!
I'm calling it, by the end of august this year your channel will double, hard times ahead, this knowledge you're sharing is literally worth more than gold
Really appreciate your videos, that T-shirt gave me a good laugh as well. Thank you!
You help me so much not to be so “worked up” about things I attempt in the garden. That’s why I’ll always pay for my from the field subscription and continue to be a fan of yours. You’re like “ahh what the hell, let’s rip these out and see how they do.” And I would be fussing over every tiny hairy root worried I’d killed them all.😂🤷🏼♀️ I’m thankful for you!!! much love to you and yours💖
you probably dont care at all but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
@Reese Casey instablaster ;)
@Marcellus Grey thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Marcellus Grey it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
@Reese Casey happy to help =)
Thank you for this video. Makes complete sense! I love you shirt by the way!
Great shirt!! And contents always spectacular!! Keep it going Curtis!!
Love the shirt
Thanks for the tip, Curtis!
Recently planted my first strawberries ever. Gifted from a nice lady on FB marketplace in the town over. Nice to see ya brother, I remember you from the market! Had no idea you were into the UA-cam thing... that's awesome! I am happy to have found your channel. 389k suscribers..wow, congratulations!
You are spot on with this video....I think this is the best strawberry video I have watched on YT, there is no secret sauce, caring for or dividing plants does not need to be made into more of a burden with a time consuming unnecessary task of "pruning" dead leaves.
Love your videos as always. Awesome shirt too!
Love the shirt, thanks for the tips, much appreciated.
This got a thumbs up simply because of your shirt. Love it!!
Wow, totally trying this, this fall! Thank you!🌻🍓
I'm going to try it. Thanks!
This is my 2nd year doing your method. I love it
great practical video, these are my favourites
Love the shirt brother!
Wow that is amazing. Well done.
Ok so everything i have ever learned about strawberries is that they need a year to establish and produce well the year after. Every strawberry i have planted has followed this.
So my theory is the only way curtis gets a good crop after ripping them all out is that fertilizer he uses. Possibly Raised bed would help along w the stone around to keep plants warmer.
We need to see what his yields are.
I know he goes for efficiency but the amount of yield per unit of work doing this cant possibly be better then established berry plants...UNLESS that HUGE dose of fertilizer works some magic.
What are your yields Mr Stone?
ua-cam.com/video/4Ok773AX4p0/v-deo.html
He is growing everbearing. Seascape. And he definitively is not maximizing his yields. Six inches apart, allowing them to fruit early and run the first year. Commercial growers would pull everbearing strawberries every year after harvest and start over. And not allow them to fruit early or put out any runners. And they get huge havest and large delicious berries. He is not.
Man... this is so timely. I've been thinning my strawberries over the last couple weeks by taking a shovel full scattered throughout the bed, leaving 18" of existing plants between the holes... I guess I should dig it all up and space it all out. Have already taken 150 or so transplants out of about an 8' x 12' area and expanded into two new beds. Guess I can go for 2 additional. Thanks for this vid!!!
Man you’re super cool! Extremely informative and helpful thanks!
Curtis I love the shirt bud.....speaks volumes....trust me!
Caught you at the very end of your first UA-cam adventure glad to see Curtis 2.0👍
We need to have a shop with Curtis complete wardrobe available for purchase. Love the shirts brother. Great stuff great videos. Love the content. Love your book!
great vid, and great info, thanx bro,
Straight forward and easy, thanks!!
getting a pitch fork tomorrow, excellent way to reuse strawberries
woe another amazing super great video from the best channel on utube thank you keep up the good work
Thanks, you are great. Greetings from Iran.
Hilarious, in doing the same now. 3 years ago I started with 2 plants in a single bed, first year they were clustered and didnt spread so I broke them apart. that following year they went took over the 8ft bed, so I started a second bed. Now I have so many I had to make vertical towers to use all these plugs!
Thanks
Great vblog, thank you!
Sustane 4-6-4. Looks like good stuff, and there is a distributor in Scotland! Thanks for the tip!
Love the shirt!
Ponchatoula Louisiana I’m in the strawberry capital of the world happy to see proper competition!!!
I transplant strawberries in August or early September (Zone 5). They have a month or two to settle in, and then I cover them with a layer of straw as soon as they freeze back. First thing in Spring I remove the straw and surround the plants with a couple inches of composted leaves with a little cow manure, which is all the fertilizer they seem to need. I find that Strawberries don't really like to be disrupted in the spring when they need their root systems to provide energy for new growth. Many commercial growers fall plant (new plants every year) and are in full production the following summer.
Nice T-Shirt, and good vid, thnx.
Love your shirt!
Love it! I’m getting ready to add Hydroponics to my hunting and fishing channel I love gardening
As always you’re the man
Been awhile since I saw the front, the trellis is nice
My beds get rotated every two to three years. Seems like my biggest strawberry 🍓 is the second year plant. Will also get bigger fruits if I pinch off the first flowers and runners ( if I have time). I might have missed it but it’s important not to plant to deep. Err on the side of shallow ( think about how the new self planting plants start ). My favorite in the NW is the ever bearing Tri Star where you get the majority in June then enough for breakfast the rest of the summer 🍓🍓🍓
Love the shirt. I use to have the bumper sticker on my truck
Good thing I watched this, I was just about to leave my beds intact this year.
ok, a rake on the ground pointing up gives me the heeby jeebies. stay safe my fellow gardener. “live long and propagate.”( plants) lol
I stupidly did this the other day, and even though I reminded myself it was there, I stepped on the tines in my flip flops and it went right into my foot! I will never again leave tools laying around. Puncture wounds hurt like hell!
I'm growing at a school in zone 6b, near Boston. What variety do you recommend for super early spring harvest before school gets out in June? Or maybe everbearing for fall harvest? lastly, do you mulch them?
What is the crop like when you replant them every year?
"Green side up is the important part" :-D Thanks for the tip!
Lol I’m here for the tshirt 😅😅
Great video! Thanks for that. Wondering if you plant June bearing or ever bearing varieties?
I do the same with my strawberry pots before the plants reawaken. The old leaves are a great place for diseases.plus this way I can see whats alive or dead etc. And my plants fruit better.
Hello Curtis I had to say I love your T-shirt
Beautiful in every respect.
There is a 10 x 10 foot patch in my field that has been growing on there own for 20 years. If I can get some help I think I will do this.
@Urban Farmer Curtis Stone Hi Curtis, very interesting video, thanks. We root runners (1 per plant) every year and use to replace plants after 2/3 years production. How does your system of producing 5 X new plants each year reflect in the yield from a given area? Happy Easter from Ireland btw.
Hi Curtis,
But when do you do this replanting ?
I am in a semi-arid area. summer is too hot. SHould I do this replanting at end of summer or right after the plant give all its fruits ie end of spring ?
Thanks.
OMG! I LLLLLLLLLLLLLLOVE that shirt!!!
Ok, I get the amount of plants thing, but how many and what size berries do you harvest?
I just did this and am anxious to see the results. Thanks for all your gardening advice. So enjoy your channel!
As soon as I saw your video I got to work thank you I don’t think my strawberries had been touched in five years they always give sweet strawberries though I’m not that many
Our early spring gave me a kick in the pants after I cleaned out my strawberry beds and winter cake back with a snowstorm.
Had to pause to say I love your shirt.
Hi, do you rotate and plant in a different bed sometimes? Where different plants grew last season?
Love the shirt! That is the same saying Dr. Paul has on his desk when he was in Congress. Also, good strawberry info.
Like your T-SHIRT. Stick it to the Man! 😂😂
Green side up!! Love that joke.
Love your content but gave the immediate thumbs up for your shirt.
10/10 on that t shirt!
love the shirt
Great vid. Waaay better than "make hole with hand."
I will do the same with my strawberries.
Thanks, that is great. Technically it would be 6x... Your original bed and 5 more.
Wow! I didn't realize they don't mind being disturbed 😧
Curtis, I was laughing when you summed it up by saying "Green side up".
Ahh, so that's what I have been doing wrong all this time.
When I separate the strawberry plant clump into individual crowns, if they have baby fruit on them already then do you recommend cutting off the fruit to allow the new plant to focus its energy on growing roots?
can you do this after the plants have flowered?
great t-shirt
Did you cover your beds for the winter or were they uncovered?
Thank you!
I have a question...you do this in the fall? And these plants produce next spring/ summer?
I'm in zone 7
Any suggestions for zone four planting of strawberries
I don't know if you'll see this but what variety do you plant? If that's not a question you'd like to answer are they ever bearing or June bearing? Just wondering what works best with you and the climate
I have a bed of strawberries the same size as your's. I was thinking this fall I would pull half of them out and plant it with the other half giving me space to put in some winter crops. Then in spring I would clear the bed out and replant all the strawberries again. What do you think?
Do you plant all the sections of the strawberry plant or do you throwaway the main one and use just the suckers? I’ve always heard the main ones are finished after two years and should be replaced?
How many days the pulled out strawberries could survive before the new transplant? May I keep them in a bag or in a box for the entire winter and transplant in the spring?
Ah man, I want that t shirt! Where did you get it?
👍on the shirt
What month is it? Are you planting only runners?
Hmm...makes sense, any plant would want SPACE, not too be crowded in, each mother lode and sibling vying for the soil nutrients and the water, less competition here in their patch means higher productivity and great quality! Also diggin' that shirt, since english is universal, it'd do well here like that, but maybe a spanish translation would be better? lol....hope ya have a great week Curtis! :D
What time of year do you do this?
I like this
Can u do an update after that day??
