I put my runners inside a sandwich bag with about 3/4 cup moist potting soil. Close around the top with a loose twist tie. In about 2-3 weeks there are baby roots and can be moved to their permanent location.
@Victoria L G. I'm going to try your suggestion. I've been trying to figure out how to get my many baby runners to root. I hope I'm as fortunate as you are. Thanks 😊

Could you do a video that talks about fertilizing of plants. Newbies do not know how often or even what to use on each plant. You have hit on it lightly for garden beds, but can you talk more about container gardening.
I'm in north jersey zone 7. I do the same thing with my strawberries every year except I unfold paperclips and use them to pin the plants until they are well rooted, then once they are rooted I remove the pins and cut them free from the mother plant. I have two hanging planters on my front porch with strawberries in them. I leave them on my porch all winter instead of hanging because it gets lots of sun so those don't generally freeze much. They are always the first ones to come back to life in the spring.
I'm a {North} Jersey girl too! Fall season here is so beautiful, it's such a beautiful state just wish the insane Taxes weren't so high! Maryland, where Gary the maker of this video is, seems very similar to Jersey regarding climate & weather.

Great video as always! Completely unrelated question for this video, but on your last Friday ramblings... we had the largest harvest of white grapes ever in CO. I couldn’t figure out what do do with them until someone mentioned raisins and you can also use muscadines. Not sure if the harvest of muscadines was as prolific but using a dehydrator to create raisins was a great way to preserve for the winter months. Wanted to know if you’ve tried that yet. And much empathy to you and other gardeners for the burnout... I didn’t mean to add another laborious preserving suggestion to your already vast wrokload 😀

I did a strawberry tower this year. Decided to do it without spending a bunch of time researching. Put a few plants in the top used yard staples to hold runners in place at empty pockets. They had so many babies every pocket is filled and more. Now w I’m here to figure out how to over winter, because in WI I know the odds are stacked against them

Thanks for the video. My folks grew mostly Fort Laromie and Olalalla strawberry plants in their garden, back when it would get down to forty below twice a year in the winter, and those babies survived it with just the snow on top insulating them. I tried strawberries for the first time this year, thanks for the video letting us know what to do with them at the end of the season. :)
Zone 3 here. We grow strawberries and winter is a harsh -40 . We don't cover or protect our plants. They are tough. I have yet to try a tower but I hope to.

I didn't receive any notification for this new strawberry video & I'm subscribed for notifications. I had realized I hadn't seen a new video from you in a few days & I know you upload videos pretty often so I went to your channel & sure enough there's a new video. It's odd {and annoying} how UA-cam does that sometimes!! I wonder if others are not getting notifications? ----Regarding strawberries, I have to add an additional bed I want to grow them so next year we will have a total of three types fruits. So far we have a raspberry hedge, & our ground cherry's were a huge success in 2021 I have 9 plants they really took off in July & Aug. I succession planted the last 3 plants and we still have fruit coming in. Strawberries would be a great addition.

Hi Gary. Is that a greenstalk tower? Is it worth the price? My strawberries are in a large grow bags on my deck. I’d like to move them off the deck but I’m concerned about rabbits, squirrels and voles. I think a vertical tower will help with that.

Can you put the tower in the garage over winter or does it need sun and or moisture? Also when do you put them in the winter location? Wait till after hard freeze?
I keep my towers out. They freeze and strawberries can handle it. They need some on going moisture and light to know its day time if they go in a garage.

Can I plant strawberries now and get them to take root? Will they produce fruit next year or am I better off waiting for spring to plant and will I get fruit the same year I plant? I am in Zone 5. Thank you.

Gary I'm going to order a greenstalk vertical tower! They have 7 inch & 10 inch. Which one would you recommend for strawberries? And should I transplant my strawberries into it now or wait until spring? They're June bearing so no berries just runners everywhere! I'm in SW VA in 7a. Thank you!
I like the 10 inch. Just holds moisture better but 7 inch works well for strawberries if that is not a worry.

My strawberry plant leaves all started browning about a month ago and I can’t figure it out. They continue to grow new leaves, but a week or so later, they start turning brown. Temperatures have been in the upper 80’s, but that is not unusual. Any ideas? I don’t want to start from scratch next year!
If they get spots first, it is probably a fungus. A spray might help. Otherwise I am not sure. Check out our new PODCAST Gardening Coast2Coast at gardeningcoast2coast.net.

Thank you for this! I'm in Houston and everyone I know grows strawberries as annuals because of the crazy hot summers. Our "real feel" temperatures haven't dropped below the 100s for a few weeks now. I'm tempted to bring them in for the summers, but I don't know if that will mess up their internal clocks or be worth the work. Do you have any thoughts?
Besides, if I just bring them in for, say, July and August, it'll have been in the 90s for a while, then drop down to our home temperature, then back to the 90s. :/ Yet... I hear that strawberries are so much better the 2nd and 3rd years!
I am not sure but I don't think it would. They will just appreciated the temperature protection. Check out our new PODCAST Gardening Coast2Coast at gardeningcoast2coast.net.

Strawberries were never a big producer for me. If I got a half dozen almost ripe berries, it was a good haul. The tower was better than on the ground. The beagles and the bugs ate them on ground level.

My folks grew mostly Fort Laromie and Olalalla strawberry plants in their garden, back when it would get down to forty below twice a year in the winter, and those babies survived it with just the snow on top insulating them. I tried strawberries for the first time this year, thanks for the video letting us know what to do with them at the end of the season. :)
Zone 3 here. We grow strawberries and winter is a harsh -40 . We don't cover or protect our plants. They are tough. I have yet to try a tower but I hope to.
🥶🇨🇦👍🏻
They are very tough and you have proof they can handle extremes

did you plant them in ground or container？ I have a few plants in container and worry they are not going to tolerate the winter in here zone 6a
@@MinaZz1990 in ground need no protection. In my large raised bed, 4x10x2.5' deep, I need to pile deeply with dried leaves.
What soil mix do you use in the Greenstalk with the strawberries?
Thank you Gary, good information as always. Have a great week
Glad to share

I didn't receive any notification for this new strawberry video & I'm subscribed for notifications. I had realized I hadn't seen a new video from you in a few days & I know you upload videos pretty often so I went to your channel & sure enough there's a new video. It's odd {and annoying} how UA-cam does that sometimes!! I wonder if others are not getting notifications? ----Regarding strawberries, I have to add an additional bed I want to grow them so next year we will have a total of three types fruits. So far we have a raspberry hedge, & our ground cherry's were a huge success in 2021 I have 9 plants they really took off in July & Aug. I succession planted the last 3 plants and we still have fruit coming in. Strawberries would be a great addition.
And it’s ok for the greenstalk to be outside all winter, frozen?
Didn’t cover my strawberry plants and we got temps down to negative 24 last winter but probably just depends on what varieties you have.
They are super hardy.

I have strawberries May through October with everbearing plants! I have an old cedar planter I move the runners in! I either share them or start another strawberry bed! I’m in Western Washington state. Shameful I don’t remember my zone.
Nah Zones are outdated LOL. I just keep saying it as people ask.

Can you talk about care tips for strawberries or varieties for us here in hot lower desert of Arizona? Thanks
I don't really grow in that but I would have to go with shade cloth.

I had beautiful leafy plants in my Greenstalk all this year, but no strawberries the whole season. Any suggestions? I’m in Colorado, zone 6.
Nope. Since you did so well with other plants the soil is good. Maybe try different strawberry varieties. Or if the plants are alive they may produce next year.

Gary I'm desperate. Milkweed bugs are destroying my whole garden. I can't find anything that will kill them. Are you familiar?
thanks

I see your red colored planters, are they from Greenstalk too? If not where could I find some of those. I love the colors.
They are and the are a limited run in The Rusted Garden Red color. The havent been made for 2 years but... they will be coming back later this fall temporarily.

Hi Gary. Is that a greenstalk tower? Is it worth the price? My strawberries are in a large grow bags on my deck. I’d like to move them off the deck but I’m concerned about rabbits, squirrels and voles. I think a vertical tower will help with that.
Beautiful.. 👌👌🌷🌷

How you get a random black walnut in your berries? I'd love a black walnut tree!
Squirrels plant the nuts. Black walnut trees are like weeds where I live.
The squirrels hid them all over

As usual, perfect timing, Gary. Thanks! ... Do you over winter alpine strawberries the same way?
I would imagine but I am not sure 100%. My though is they are as hardy if not more.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Gary, thank you for taking the time to reply. This is why i buy my seed starting materials from you. Thanks!
Gary, is your rustic red greenstalk ever going to come back? I got one but really want to get 3 more since I love the color so much. I believe they asked on Instagram if they should bring it back. Any update on that?
They did ask. They are thinking about it but I don't have word yet

Or half as much 3x10.
In Chicago we get -20F in the winter ... will strawberries survive in that?
They can. You have to look up what variety you have and how cold hardy they are. But thats pushing the limits.

How do you keep squirrels and birds from eating all your berries? I believe in sharing but they’ve been so greedy this year ☹️
Use some netting
I never had an issue with the either on strawberries. But I do trap and release squirrels for other reasons.

Can you put the tower in the garage over winter or does it need sun and or moisture? Also when do you put them in the winter location? Wait till after hard freeze?
I keep my towers out. They freeze and strawberries can handle it. They need some on going moisture and light to know its day time if they go in a garage.

I bought some bare root strawberry yesterday and they have some green leaves on top. Is it ok to plant & leave them outside? I'm planting them in the Greenstalk I bought (TRG colour!!) I'm in zone 7b UT. Thks!!
Yeah that is how I do it. I might try and wait till the cold comes through in the next 2 days. However, strawberries can handle freezes

Can I plant strawberries now and get them to take root? Will they produce fruit next year or am I better off waiting for spring to plant and will I get fruit the same year I plant? I am in Zone 5. Thank you.
In Maryland you have time for sure. I think they would root in 5 but not really sure. I would do a handful to see.

Gary I'm going to order a greenstalk vertical tower! They have 7 inch & 10 inch. Which one would you recommend for strawberries? And should I transplant my strawberries into it now or wait until spring? They're June bearing so no berries just runners everywhere! I'm in SW VA in 7a. Thank you!
I like the 10 inch. Just holds moisture better but 7 inch works well for strawberries if that is not a worry.

My strawberry plant leaves all started browning about a month ago and I can’t figure it out. They continue to grow new leaves, but a week or so later, they start turning brown. Temperatures have been in the upper 80’s, but that is not unusual. Any ideas? I don’t want to start from scratch next year!
If they get spots first, it is probably a fungus. A spray might help. Otherwise I am not sure.

Thank you for this! I'm in Houston and everyone I know grows strawberries as annuals because of the crazy hot summers. Our "real feel" temperatures haven't dropped below the 100s for a few weeks now. I'm tempted to bring them in for the summers, but I don't know if that will mess up their internal clocks or be worth the work. Do you have any thoughts?
Besides, if I just bring them in for, say, July and August, it'll have been in the 90s for a while, then drop down to our home temperature, then back to the 90s. :/ Yet... I hear that strawberries are so much better the 2nd and 3rd years!
Shade cloth
I am not sure but I don't think it would. They will just appreciated the temperature protection.

Why not just move the strawberry plant forward in the same pot it was growing in?
In this case the runners would get to those levels. But since this had roots I wanted to put it down lower. But moving it forward would be fine. Dont know if I showed it on camera but the once I dug out all get put lower.

Strawberries were never a big producer for me. If I got a half dozen almost ripe berries, it was a good haul. The tower was better than on the ground. The beagles and the bugs ate them on ground level.
I had beagles years ago
