Thanks good idea. I actually have a slightly larger pot that I think I'm going to transplant them into. Aside from some light watering I am also spraying it down with a water spray bottle at medium intensity. The leafs seem to like that. If it does grow runners that would be great, and then I can plant those in other pots. Hope it continues to do well, today is a sunny day.

Talking Re: STRAWBERRY Grower's Thread...

I love how the seeds on the Alpine berries are the first to turn red when the berries ripen...

Hope I can keep this plant going all winter long in my aero-garden. The berries are totally delicious.

oh wow, great pic. The stems on my plant are only about 2 to 3 inches. But I noticed that some of the leafs are higher than before. Looks like the stems will end up growing about 5-7 inches when its ready to fruit. This give me a good idea on what my plant may look like in a month or so. Thanks!

Yes, definitely similar to how your plant will look, but don't forget that mine is an Alpine variety and they are way smaller plants. Yours could also have runners, whereas Alpines don't.


Thanks about the shot. Here's a similar one but a little further away...

On another pic would you be able to place a soda can or cup next to the plant so I can see how large it is? Also I have no idea what kind of strawberry plant I have so I'm not sure what it will look like fully grown. The leafs are a very nice mid to dark green (my plant) so I'm sure it is very healthy.

The plant is 4-6 inches tall with an 8 inch spread. Not very big at all, and just perfect for my aero-garden. It gets fed weekly.


Your plant will likely look like most full-size strawberty plants and be 6-8 inches tall. The spread will depend on if it produces runners or not.


Don't be shy about calling the place you bought it from and asking them to ask their supplier about the details on the variety.

Yes I did check it out and your little video too. Looks like you've got a lot of great stuff going on.


Do you have an aero-garden?
