    #WhimsyCrafter #Strawberryseedlings #Strawberrytransplant
    Many of my viewers,have been eagerly waiting for me to upload the next step in strawberry seedling care.
    After much effort I have been successful in compiling this video where I show you how you need to transplant the seedlings,along with the blunders you need to avoid.
    It is because of these blunders coupled with the drastic temperature fluctuations,that I lost my strawberry seedlings.Anyway, I hope that the mistakes I have identified here,will help you to sustain your seedlings.
    Since the process is self explanatory,I have not added any voiceover for this video.
    Feel free to ask me in case of any queries.
    Happy gardening folks!

    Whenever I transplant anything, I make sure it’s never in direct light for the rest of the day. Under a table (indoors or out, depending on the temp needs of the plant) works fine. Otherwise they’re trying to make energy from light AND trying to establish roots, and it’s just too much for the little guys.

      Ps. They also like acidic soil. I crush pine needles in my soil, but there’s berry-specific soil on Amazon. :)

    After not finding any plants at any stores or nursery's I tried this method of seed germination, and had no luck with it, what I did after my first failure was freeze the skin , then taking the seeds off and planting them, this worked. Today October 19, 2021, I have over 50 plants growing in my basement in a small greenhouse, they are about 3in tall. I don't know how fast they're going to grow this winter, but I want to put them outside in the spring. Here in Michigan that could be anytime. Don't know If they need to be transplanted again to bigger containers, or keep them in the seed trays they are in now.

    Hey!
    My strawberries have just begun sprouting!
    Do you know what is the ideal depth of the soil they need to fruit? I tried planting them on a pot, it's about 12" (30cm) deep and about 8" (20cm) wide. Do you think it will be enough?

    • @WhimsyCrafter
      @WhimsyCrafter  3 роки тому +2

      Strawberries have shallow root system..so they would prefer wider pots than deep ones. 20 cm width is quite okay..but I'd like to tell you that you need to up pot the seedlings ga as they grow..if you plant a just sprouted seedling in such a huge pot..it will get too much of everything,water,ferts and shock ofcourse. Eventually it will catch fungus and die off..for a seedling,a 3 .5 to max 5 inch inch pot is more than sufficient.

    Hey great vid just a couple of questions when is the right time to transplant like how old should they be and how long does it take for it to bear fruit thx so much stay safe

    • @WhimsyCrafter
      @WhimsyCrafter  4 роки тому +1

      The plant should be atleast 4 to 5 inch in length with multiple sets of true leaves,when u transplant.
      It might take anywhere around one to two years for the seedlings to fruit.
      Plants grown from seeds take longer to fruit

    • @WhimsyCrafter
      @WhimsyCrafter  3 роки тому +1

      @Pink Salt I know right😛 same here,i too thought so. Only in areas where the temperatures remain uniform throughout the year,the plants can fruit in a year

    • @WhimsyCrafter
      @WhimsyCrafter  3 роки тому

      You have to keep an eye on the media..if it starts turning light brown on the top it means it needs watering. Also..the container will feel lighter when dry...so that's another indication. Usually with a moisture retentive media and morning sun exposure, you can go for atleast 5 days without watering
