Hello I just found your video and I wanted to watch It. I actually watched the thing about your pineapple top plant, and I went ahead and came to your channel. I saw this and wanted to watch to see if I could learn anything neew. I've been growing strawberries in those exact same containers for several years, and I just have a tip for you. You may end up having to unstack them because the ones that aren't facing the sun won't get any sun and they won't do as well unless you rotate them everyday. I didn't have time to rotate them every day, so I ended up unstacking them. It just works better for me. Hopefully, you have better luck with them stacked. I can't wait to see your progress. Thanks so much for making videos!
HEY, Michelle!!! Thanks for the tip. I will definitely be on the lookout. Have you grown a pineapple plant before? I may have to rotate the planters like you said.
Thank u! Got mine from dollar tree and got more from Amazon and babe set up my strawberries today! Thank u!! oh and thank you for the tip for the Bare root! My first purchase, I buried the whole thing and they died. I’m still learning so it’s all good!
HEY, Andrea!!! Cool, I was late going to the dollar store, I guess. You are welcome. Hey, I'm still learning things, too. We are going to keep working at it. Thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it.
HEY Christmas!!! I have a video how to make a trellis for cucumbers. If you put that pot by that trellis, you will have cucumbers hanging around. I have a video called How to grow large watermelons on a trellis, That might work as well.
Another great video full of great knowledgeable information, out of all the UA-cam planting channels you are definitely the best when it comes to pure information . Thanks for sharing this is my 3rd year growing strawberry’s but gonna try to double my plants
Hi Bear, please make a video showing how you remove the plants from the ground without damaging the roots and explain what we should be looking for when selecting the best plants.
HEY, Felicyah!!! If you go back to that video at the end of the video, there is a strawberry video where I show how to uproot the plants. Those are the plants I put in the tower.
@@GrowSomethingTasty Ok. I will watch a few more times. I am nervous because I finally got them to start growing on the ground. Thank you for responding.
Hi " Bear"- do you have a video on propagating strawberries from year to year via the runners? Thanks in advance for your advice- I've learned a lot from you!
HEY, Saintmig!!! I'm glad to hear the videos are helping. I actually propagated those strawberry plants. At the end of this video I have a 6 minute video showing how I propagated those plants in cups from runners. Thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it.
I have the same containers. How often do you fertilize and water? I understand that I may not live in the same zone as you but I would like to know your routine.
HEY, James!!! I have to do an update on this. You don't want my schedule. I did not do well. I would use compost tea twice a week myself. For me, I think the pots are too small. My roots were decent size. I did get a few berries, but they were small. The heat fried mine eventually, so I would water 2 to 3 times a week, but that's why mine eventually fried. I will do better next time.
Hi Bear, I enjoyed your strawberry video. I have a question: can I direct sow strawberries or is a must to transplant them? Also I’ve seen people cut a sliver of strawberry skin and planted that. Have you ever tried this method? If so how did it turn out?
HEY Meka!!! How are you? You can do both. I have never tried by seed. I know it's quicker to buy the bareroots. I have read that many prefer to get the bareroots. I have seen people plant the skin of the strawberry, but I don't know. I might try it to see if there is a difference .
Do you prune your strawberries? Mine have lots of runners and I’m not sure if that’s the cause for my berries growing in so slowww.. and few far in between lol.. thanks for your knowledge
HEY, TheDreamHaven!!!! Yes, that is taking energy away from the berries. I let my runners grow when I'm trying to make more plants. My planner did not do great, I'm going to try a bigger planter for more soil.
Okay I kinda figured. The leaves started turning brown like they are burned too. I’m not sure if it’s too hot here or what lol.. so I’m trying everything to see where I’m going wrong. First I’m going to tackle those runners since I don’t need anymore strawberry plants and see if that helps. Love your videos..
HEY Majordadsc!!! I need to do a video on it. I did get some strawberries but they were small. The tower needs deeper pots for more soil. That's just my opinion. Hopefully, I will find one like that.
HEY, Dag4836!!! I planted benton and San Andreas strawberries. Yes, actually, those plants in the tower were all from runners. At the end of that video, there is another strawberry video where I showed how to get those plants from the runners.
@@GrowSomethingTasty I’ve never Rev grown strawberries. Do I really want runners in a tower or should I plant a variety that doesn’t produce runners? What kind of nightmare will I get with runners? I was surprised they have varieties that don’t produce them.
@dag4836 The runners turned into an identical plant. When I put them in the tower, they are new plants. I'm pretty sure when I order bareroot strawberries, they are from runners. You will never have to buy strawberries again unless you want a different variety. I don't think it will be a nightmare unless the plant is not fully developed and you try to plant it somewhere else

HEY, Felicyah!!! Thank you so much. That was so nice of you!
@@GrowSomethingTasty You're welcome! Thanks for your strawberry knowledge!
Hey Bear can you make a video tutorial on how to trellis watermelons and cucumbers in 25 gal fabric grow pots PLEASE 😅🙏😇
HEY Christmas!!! I have a video how to make a trellis for cucumbers. If you put that pot by that trellis, you will have cucumbers hanging around. I have a video called How to grow large watermelons on a trellis, That might work as well.
Just planted my first strawberry plants in containers
HEY, Angela!!! That is awesome to hear. I hope you get nice juicy strawberries.
Another great video full of great knowledgeable information, out of all the UA-cam planting channels you are definitely the best when it comes to pure information . Thanks for sharing this is my 3rd year growing strawberry’s but gonna try to double my plants
HEY, JESSE!!! WOW! Thanks for the compliment. I hope you get to double your strawberry plants.
The stackers are a good idea, I was using hanging baskets 😢
They look nice, I bet others are using hanging baskets as well.
I need to give more attention to my strawberry garden. Grew something like 5 berries last year.
HEY, Terrancat!!! Let me know how it goes. Our goal is to get lots of them this time
that planter is so cool!
HEY, Curlykiki!!! Thanks! This is my first time using them. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@Felicyah I understand how you feel, but those plants can handle it. They are pretty tough.
Thanks. I will keep you posted.

If you do buy some bareroots berries, you won't ever have to buy them again. All those plants came from runners
❤❤❤
HEY, Bully's weed farm!!! Thanks!!

Did these stackers help? We have the same problems with our strawberries planted in the ground.
HEY Majordadsc!!! I need to do a video on it. I did get some strawberries but they were small. The tower needs deeper pots for more soil. That's just my opinion. Hopefully, I will find one like that.
@@GrowSomethingTasty yeah we have had a row of strawberries (our second year) and we don’t get any berries.
What variety did you plant? Do they produce runners.
HEY, Dag4836!!! I planted benton and San Andreas strawberries. Yes, actually, those plants in the tower were all from runners. At the end of that video, there is another strawberry video where I showed how to get those plants from the runners.

@@GrowSomethingTasty I meant as they are growing and shooting out runners, won’t they get out of hand? Do you just keep snipping them off?
@dag4836 You can cut them or put them in a cup of soil until they are an established plant.
