For the strawberry tier, some of the soil looks dry. Make sure the crowns are not below soil level, water well then mulch the strawberries w/ straw. I hope this helps😊
This was my first year gardening at our new place and results have definitely not been good. I chalk it up to the new bagged soil we used. It was far from completely broken down. Very woody still. There is some old cow manure in my raised beds, but I think it needs time. I am adding old chicken manure and cut grass as I put them to bed. Hopefully the added nutrients and time will make for better crops next year. I miss the fertile dirt with worms from the old place.
I'm sure it will take some time for things to even out with your soil. It's probably a little frustrating starting new especially if you had an established garden before. It's a constant learning process! I wish you more success next year.

Thanks for the advice! I need to start mulching.
