I have a greenstalk full of strawberries, to save money the first year I only planted strawberries in every other tier. When the runners started to set I used a landscape staple to hold them in the nearest empty pocket. The "empty" pockets I planted with annual flowers just to be pretty until the runners started to root in. Also, I'm in Knoxville Tennessee where geenstalk was invented and still produced so we LOVE a greenstalk.
I love this advice! I hope to get my first green stalk soon. I was at the Heirloom Expo this week and got to see one in person and feel it and it definitely feels of high quality.
That sounds like the perfect idea❤
Great idea. We got our first GreenStalk this month. I bought it for strawberries, which we will plant next year. This week we planted some lettuce plants and radish seeds. The radishes started to come up in a couple days.
@@julieofidaho if it's free over winter you can put tulip bulbs in the bottom of the pockets and they'll pop up in the spring
I always get excited when I see a comment from someone near me. My husband is a City of Knoxville fireman. We love East Tennessee, and I really need to buy one of these for our strawberries. 🍓
Hearing Laura talk about how the baby plant takes energy away from the mother plant makes me giggle. My 10 month old son takes energy from me every day! :)
🤭
@@waitingpatientlyforsummerlol I think we can all agree with that😂
Quá tuyệt vời ❤❤❤
Same here! 😂
Laura, you should try rooting your runners in water! You can take an empty 72 count seed starting tray and put a runner in each one of the pockets to keep them upright. Then fill the bottom watering tray up half way with water and you'll have fully rooted plants in a few weeks that are ready to be potted up in soil. I found this to be much more reliable than establishing them in soil and I've tripled my strawberry crop this year with this technique. Enjoy!
Thanks for share
I was wondering if it could be done in water…thanks!
I have 3 tall greenstalks filled with strawberries that NEED to be started over and your idea is great. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow or maybe tonight - it sounds so easy and I can then get on with another chore.
Interesting method. I did not know about this!
That is how I have always started my new strawberry plants. It's so much easier then the method Laura is using.
I had great success with the babies when I planted them (still attached to the mother) in a small clear disposable plastic cup of soil. I used “alligator clips” to attach the cups directly to the greenstalk. I water each little cup separately of course and I used straight hairpins to attach to each baby to keep contact with the soil. When I start to see roots in the little clear cups, I remove the baby from the mother and plant the baby with the roots. I clip the weaker babies and try to only have one baby per greenstalk section. That gives me up to 30 new plants. At first I tried to root every baby but it was hard to manage. Pick the strongest baby per mother plant to propagate and clip the rest every time they emerge until the baby in each cup roots. I hope my explanation was not confusing.
Thank you so much for sharing this idea...I'm going to try it. Have a great day!😊
Exciting! I will try this in the stack container.
❤
@@barbaramclean5995 you should try it. I have 100% success
@@marylenhastings6533 it works for me
Use the black metal binder clips. That’s what I call alligator clips.
I smile each time you mention strawberries as I remember when Benjamin first discovered them in your raised beds and how enjoyed them so much ! Now Samantha is doing the same . Thanks for sharing. Your hard work seems effortless but we know it’s such hard work to provide such great content like you both do! What a team you all are! I have enjoyed the change of content so much. Look forward to the pond and all that’s happening there!
Yes! I’d forgotten about that. He was so cute when he found them. ❤
It's so cool that you make videos every day for us. ❤
I did just that! I added strawberry plants in two flower pots. My grandson who turned one in May enjoyed a strawberry or two almost everyday this summer! He would walk down the sidewalk saying “berries!” 😊 it was the cutest thing! Better bet this grandma will be adding lots more next year!
The next video will be Laura showing the strawberry plants growing in her compost pile! 😊
Iwas wondering if they could be composted
only she doesnt compost.
I learned so much today! Our strawberry patch is in 5 large pots along the south side of our house. We started over with fresh plants this year and have had pretty good success. The couple of pots that seemed to not produce I am realizing I added some soil after planting and maybe buried their crowns.
Now I know how to fix that! 😅🤣
It’s always so pleasant to watch and learn from you, Laura. Thank you!!
I'm sooo happy to see you plant the bigger baby strawberries you cut off the mother plant☺️
Strawberries make my favorite jam. It’s handy to have some in the freezer, too. Those plant towers would be so great on a patio or small space. 👍💚💚💚
I can see Benjamin and Samantha doing a happy dance !! They will have more strawberries to eat later in the year.😊 Benjamin, I hope you and Samantha gave mom a great big hug for planting you guys some more strawberries to snack on.
I bought Seascape Strawberry Plants after seeing your earlier vid and I couldn't be happier with their yield and taste - thanks Laura!
I bought some as well, and there was a lot of strawberries and hardly any runners!
@@lisawalsh1941 I have lots of berries and runners ~ which I cut off. I'll keep some babies next year.
In the spring I cut all the runners from my bugleweed and filled trays with the babies and they rooted beautifully. I ended up with about 300 baby bugleweed plants to fill in around a stepping stone path on the side of my house that usually just fills with regular weeds. My hope is that when the bugleweed fills in and creates a blanket it will suppress the weeds. It's only an area towards my gas meter and air conditioning unit and we don't usually frequent back there. But its quite shady so I've added some hosta, heuchera and Japanese painted ferns just for some fun and colour. I used two different bugleweed as well, chocolate chip and burgundy glow. I'm obsessed with burgundy glow because of the pink white and green variegation. I can't wait to see it on a large scale 😊
That sounds amazing! I have a shaded area that has all kinds of grassy weeds between the paving stones that are a pain to pull out. Was almost thinking of round-up but love this idea..thank you! 😊
@@barbaramclean5995 I just dug up a HUGE Doone Valley Thyme and cut it into 5 chunks and also planted around my stepping stones. I also have two large iceplants that I'm not really fond of in my other garden, I am going to dig them up and put there too. My hopes is if I fill this area with as many ground covers as possibly the weeds won't stand a chance lol 😅. This summer before I started planting the weeds were about 4' tall 😬. I dont ever want it to get like that again.
good evening everyone!
OMG, I love the suggestion of placing a little bag of soil around the baby plant to get it started ... that's genius!
I put all cut-off runners into a plastic container, or old pickle jar/mason jar with water in the bottom that covers the entire base of the plant, sometimes it even goes up over the leaves, if it rains the container might be full of water until I empty a part of it. Roots will grow this way effortlessly. Once you see root, then plant it. You might loose a plant once in a blue moon, but majority roots for replanting.
Plant one greenstalk of just strawberry plants.
Can you grow cucumbers on a greenstalk too?anything that has a vine .all you have to do is to take it off the greenstalk .
SO Awesome My Sister grows Strawberries I'll share this for her Love your Videos every Morning so Happy to see you Love waking up to Garden Answer
Though I have no need for a Greenstalk just watching Laura do anything garden related makes me happy! Good morning from Denver! 🌻🌸🌷🌺🐞😍
Vertical gardens are an excellent way for people with limited space to grow things. Thanks for sharing. Happy Gardening 👩🌾🍓💚🍓🍓🍓
Thank you for sharing. This is my first year with trying a green stalk. I’m learning a lot from you.
Good morning garden answer family
TGIF!!! Get ready weekend warriors... cooler temps = lots of AUTUMN planting!
46 degrees right now.
Put a rock, wood wedge or door stop down to keep them from getting accidentally rotated while still attached to the mother plant
I love how Laura says let's plant up a few and plants 16!😂😂😂 Makes me wish I had taken on planting strawberries this year. On the list for next year!😁
Video rất tuyệt vời ❤❤❤
That strawberry plant is such a lady, she multiplied the nurture and care your family has given her
I didn't know strawberries last multiple years! ❤
Luôn luôn ủng hộ ❤❤❤
My dad would let the runners spread and in fall he would use a shovel to chop between the plants to break the running “thread”. The next year he would pull the mother plant and the babies would fill in as they grew and shot out their own runners. The production level of strawberries was crazy!!
I love that Laura still potted some up...I would have had a hard time tossing that many runners...I am such a wimp when it comes to getting rid of plants, even if they're not needed.
I have one of the Green Stalk and planted strawberries 🍓 in it but didn’t take enough care of it so my strawberry bushes are still there but didn’t produce so thank you so much Laura for not only inspiring me but also encouraging me to put more effort into them. ❤❤❤
You talk about things the kids like to harvest. You could do a "Top picks for harvesting with kids" video and include plants like carrots and strawberries.
I'm always looking for ways to get the kids in the garden.
Good morning, Laura ☕️ What a fun project. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
Afternoon Everyone 🥰🥰
So timely! I just took some babies and potted them up but buried them so I ran out and pulled them up to the top. Love the idea of growing in these green stalks going forward. My plant was in a big raised pot but love those green stalk containers!
Buy a Green stalk for Strawberry plants for spring 2024 ✔️
🍓🍓🍓🍓 I will definitely do that! Thanks Laura.
I lost all of my strawberries that were planted in my Greenstalk last winter because I didn't know I needed to protect them in the winter here in my zone 6 garden. Thank you for all the info!
If there’s a community garden near you go visit and if anyone is growing strawberries ask them if it’s ok to get some of the runners off their plants. In most case people are kind enough to share the extras.
This is my first year with the greenstalk strawberries and I had not planned to do that. Now I know too
❤❤❤😂😂😂😢😢😢
Here's hoping you get lots of morning smoothies from this new crop of strawberries.😊
This video is the very essence of faith God will provide ❤
I have always just cut the runners and plunked them in the soil. I have had great luck. They will root anywhere and take over the garden. Anybody else have luck with the cut and plunk method?
Laura acompanho os teus vídeos já desde que nasceu o teu filho, adoro ver as dicas e sugestões que dás, como vivo num apartamento comei com pequenos vasos de suculentas,e hoje presenteio todas as pessoas com quem me relaciono e estou aqui para te agradecer. Foi uma grande conquista obrigada.
What a brilliant way to utilize greenstalks for propagation!! ❤
Perfect timing for me to see this. I have a raised round bed that I transplanted a store bought hanging plant last year. I ground planted it, did nothing special to it and it handled the CT winter great. Gave me lots of berries this year and now there are tons of babies to the point it is over growing the bed. Now I know I can go in and trim it back some and let selected babies live together with mom. Thanks!!!🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓
I have been on the fence about this growing system since first seeing it here, but you've convinced me now! I'm ordering one and asking my kids for another for Christmas! So excited to put this on my sunny deck, which sits above my small garden. Thanks again Laura. It's been a great 8 months watching you! (Can't wait for our 90 degree weather to cool down so I can wear my new Andrews Seed Co. sweatshirt too! From Atlanta, Love & Blessings!
Cousin It gets a hair cut! Laura “ I’ll just plant up a few”. 24 cells later! A few to me is maybe 5ish. My Greenstalk has sat empty close to a year, shamefully. You give me encouragement!
Yay! This is the video I was waiting for. I just got a 7 tier just for strawberries 🍓 !
Another lovely video, Laura. Thank you. Strawberry planting has been on my mind.
So wonderful in the green house over winter for the littles.
Great video! Thank you for sharing info on strawberries!!
This is one of my favorite videos you have done!! Question.. to make sure I understand…. The strawberries MUST be taken outside and experience a cold period for them to produce next year?? They can’t be grown year-round in the greenhouse for continuous production??
Glad I'm not the only one who uses the "Let it grow and see what happens" method of gardening. LOL
Seascape is my favorite strawberries. They grow beautifully in my hanging basket strawberry garden. I cut my runners off all my plants except the largest momma plant. Free plants for life! Your vlogs are so much fun to watch every morning with my coffee. Happy gardening😊
Looks like the green stalk is the perfect strawberry container. Love that rogue squash!
Where did you get your seascapes from?
@@melissabunnell2952 some online vendors sell them and I'm lucky to have a farm store here that sticks them bare root.
Hello from Melbourne Australia.
such perfect timing! working on my vertical garden and replanting my runners is on the docket for this weekend, lol... if you have children or grands (like i do), letting them pick strawberries from the vertical planter is just the best.. they can get to them, turn the planter to look for more, and have such a good time harvesting a snack... i love mine!! thanks for the info!!🥰❤thanks for the video!! 🥰❤
My dad had a beautiful strawberry garden it was 8 acres he sold strawberries acres yr.yes your right about the plants. My dad put all money from the sales in the strawberries in savings for me he started doing this when I was 1yrs old and the huge strawberry garden was named after me. In 1977 when I graduated I had a brand new Ford Mustang that the strawberries paid for.
Great timing on this video! I too have a Greenstalk (thank you Laura!) I put a few strawberry freebies from my bro in law, they have runners and I will be planting up remaining pockets!!! Also in zone 5b I need to get it in the garage for the winter before I connect the tiers, won’t roll up and down the stairs! Thanks again Laura!❤
When you overwinter in garage do they have to be watered or have any light.
Your strawberry green stalk is doing awesome, mine didn't do so well, I had very few strawberries and they were very small. I might change the soil and give it another go. Blessings 💞🤗💞
Laura try adding super thrive to your top tray of water.
Hi Laura. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. What can I do for you. I have been watching you for year's and have so enjoyed watching your family grow. My name is Bobbie Peters.
FYI there is a little black cap that comes with the Greenstalk kit. It may be in the bag with the clear tubing. I believe it's for covering the drainage hole in the spinner base. I use it to cover the center hole on each tier when I fill with soil.😉
It's actually the cap for the clear drainage tube, but I also used it to cover the hole when filling with soil.
Thanks, Laura! Blessings!
I have 10 greenstocks getting them ready fall planting watching you for spring with the strawberry 😊😊
❤❤❤😂❤❤❤😂❤❤❤
Thank you so much, so very helpful. I live in Mich. First year I have grown strawberries in my Greenstalk. I was really wondering how to preserve them come our harsh winters. Thanks so much for the great info.
Thank you for all the information on strawberries.
Most creative use of Greenstalks I've ever seen. Always love propagating plants that are at hand.
New concepts today! I did not know about Greenstalks or propagating strawberries. Laura makes her work look so fun and communicates how to do better gardening. I have always loved to garden, but now my interest level is really expanding. 🤗
FYI. Green stalks is a great family business In Tennessee. Made in America. Yay!
I have one too and they are great. I think they are having a sale now. Happy gardening!
Good Morning! 🍓 Great information on propagating strawberries! Love the GreenStalk for strawberries! I am going to consider this system for next season! 😃🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🌿

If tools, cats, gloves start to go missing in the green house check that squash plant, it ate them.
Put the little runners in a glass of water and they will root in the water. When you see roots plant them out in the garden bed or a pot.
I would love that many strawberry plants and greenstalk planter 😍
Very helpful. I just filled mine with 30 strawberry plants, I’m in the south.
Thanks for all your great imfo❤🦋🙏🏻
I usually fast forward during the music because the music selected is too busy and not easy to listen to, somewhat jarring at times, but TODAY'S selection of music was wonderful!! Nice and relaxing!
Strawberries, my favorite ❤🍂🍁
I use the large paperclips to hold the plants onto the soil when trying to propagate the extra runners in the pots.
A couple weeks ago I decided my strawberries. I have a fair amount. I planted a new, another, bed of berries. I still had a boat load left. I have away 24 double mother plants with most having babies and then found room for about 16 more! I think I will be switching over my strawberry beds to Dollar tree planters that "look like" minnie Greenstalks. I will see how the 16 plants do in them. So far so good. Currently I use laundry baskets lined on the inside and planted on top and through the holes in the sides. I leave space in the holes to start the babies. Excited for harvesting next year! 💜💚💙💛🐸😎
bed
Bless you for doing your strawberries in 101 degree I don’t know how you do it. It all looks great ❤
Forget raised beds, especially for your situation. Dig a trench 2 or 3 feet next to a row of strawberries. Voila! No kneeling.
i've rooted cut runners in cups of water before and had great success :)
Seascape are my favorite! It’s a perpetual giver ! I call the runners my “Straw Babies”! 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓
Great video Laura! I love learning from you!❤
Love that you are using the runners. I can't wait to see the progress.
I really enjoyed this video, a refreshing change . Thank you .
Good morning from Delaware Garden Answer friends.
What great timing,this week I’m moving my strawberries from strawberry jars to raised beds. And thanks for the propagation info.
I use the small individual nursery pots and use a clothespin to hook it to the green stalk and they root in great!
Good advice! I can totally picture it.
🍓If you are an avid canner June bearing strawberries are great for you. You want your production at the same time so you are not waiting for enough to process. That’s the type I have. I will be adding everybearing next year as well. I would love to pick thru out the summer season. So Seascape will be my new addition. That way I’ll have both. Some to can and some to eat fresh. They look amazing.
Can you suggest the best June bearing variety?
Kindred spirits I tell ya. Just did that to my Green Stalk last week. Have a GREAT weekend.
I started doing this earlier this summer. They are spreading naturally from the top down via their runners!
Love strawberry preserves. I will try planting them in s stack container. Thanks for sharing.
Greenstalk does sell a frost cover, and an insect protection cover for the greenstalk. I have used it and it works well. In early Spring when it was still cold there was actually a small bird that was hanging out under the cover. You can tie the ends tighter if needed. The covers are sturdy and great quality that can also be used for any plant, with it being nice and tall.
This is a great video, I am so happy that I purchased two Greenstalks and now I know exactly what I am going to do with them!!!
Good evening Laura and family
Ahh nice I'm going to have to invest in one of those, thanks, have a great rest of the evening and weekend 🙂👋🍓
Thank you very much, this helped me troubleshoot where I went wrong with mine.
Vey very helpful for me this my first year growing in a greenstalk hoping to get abundance to share
Thanks Laura
I use the shallow pocket greenstalks for my berries.
I cut my runner baby’s off of the mother plant and plant right in the ground. They almost always root. So easy to rejuvenate your strawberry patch. Laura you may be surprised if you grow one of the green stocks over winter. Just to see how many berries you get. Cool nights and warm days promote blooms
😮 30 strawberry plants is a lot
😃 let’s DOUBLE it
😊 TRIPLE
🤗 WORLD DOMINATION 🌎 🍓
What a great and informative video today. Thank you
This is such great advice! I’ve been growing strawberries in Jamaica and had some issues getting the runners to survive. I’m encouraged to try again. Thanks!
Perfect timing on this video. I have a new greenstalk that I wanted to plant in all strawberries. My current one has several with babies. I've cleaned out a lot of the spent plants, and the babies are rooting in the empty pockets. My plan was to to move them to every other pot and let the future babies root in between. You gave me a lot of information I didn't know. Thank you. How cold can it get without harming them? I wasn't sure about leaving them outside vs moving to the garage which has some heat. It was unusually cold last winter here in Kentucky.
Good morning ☀️
I actually just cut the runners and plant them. They still root in if you keep them well watered.
