"I need more strawberries." No truer statement ever spoken! Great video!
😄👏🏾
It’s is quite remarkable that you’ve kept the same variety and indeed the same plant growing for so many years mr Scott. Next year I intend to plant a new bed with only strawberries because my daughter loves them so much. I’ve actually not seen any content on RUclips before that puts forth such a clear step A step B step C explanation. It’s very much appreciated and it’s why we enjoy your content so much. Thank you!
I'd have to agree. I would like to see the steps to clipping the runner and rooting it. I'll have to do that because of where I'll be harvesting runners.
@@beebob1279 its Nov 2, 2021 an I bought a hanging plant with 6 strawberry plants with 2 runners , so excited to plant right now ,already have the yard staples to root the runners just like blackberries do the same thing .
God bless u 🙏🏻

Perfect timing for this video! I started with 2 plants and now have 20 in pots. And that’s 30 minutes after watching this video. Thanks Scott!
Perfect timing for me as the season winds down. I was visiting my mother in-laws strawberry beds and thought; what a wonderful idea to bring her favorite plants into my garden. She recently passed and I’d love to carry on her joy. Thanks for a another great video!
With the way you explain things, I would truly love to see a clear comprehensive video on the exact steps for fertilizing strawberries including Ever bearing, day neutral and june bearing varieties. There is a lot of conflicting information out there and if there is a RUclips gardner that could make a concise video on this subject for beginners like myself it would be you.
Thank you. Because I focus on soil amendments and mulches I don't do much fertilization, but a video on strawberry nutrients is a good one. My plan is to build some new strawberry beds and do more videos on strawberry care, but my timeline is for that to happen next year. I'll see if I can move it up.
@@GardenerScott, does this method work for everbearing strawberries too? I’ve been led to believe that everbearing dot really send out runners? Thank you! I’m trying strawberries for the first time this year.
We have some great runners started, but they're still very young. I can't wait. Perfect timing Scott!
I'm glad I stumbled across this video, my parents inherited a over gown strawberry patch with their new house, it's actually trying to choke the rose bush out of it's space, and this was a a great tutorial in not only how to prune this plant back but so now I can get a strawberry plant to hang in my balcony garden
You have by far the best content for us beginners on RUclips. Thank you so much gardener Scott, I'm a new subscribe.
Thank you! Welcome to the channel!
Wow, what an awesome video. This is my first year to propagate strawberry's, I learned so much. You have a new subscriber here. Thank you for the video gardener Scott.
Mr.Scott, I have found at Blue Eye Maple and Strawberries we pin down our runner with (plastic folk) much easier to handle than staple! Also can be used over and over again!
Another great and informative video! What a wonderful way to get free plants and strawberries for life! And what fruit you don't eat, give away, or sell at a farmer's market, you can freeze!
You are amazing! Very well educator. Thank you!
Thank you very much !
In N Florida, 8b...strawberries grow best in full morning sun. 😉
i didn't know david lynch had a garden
You covered things like no one, very helpful , I just subscribed
Thanks! Welcome to the channel.
I have a new Strawberry bed, now I can't wait to see runners to try your method. Thank you
Geeezzz....look at that lawn!!! Thought mine was bad... 😅 But great videos....love watching them!
We just planted our first strawberries and my sons are already talking about wanting to sell their runner plants xD
I've tried to plant strawberries with seeds and they stalled...looking forward to grow them from plants next year! Thank you Gardener Scott for your dedication! I'm in zone 8 here in Ga!
Great idea about making home-made staples and potting the strawberry plant runners. Thank you for this very informative video!
Another good video! Do strawberries transplant well if you just take the child plants that have rooted outside your bed in the ground. That way you can eliminate the potting step. I find strawberries spread like crazy after a few years but the original crowns die off so it would be good to take the child plants and put them back into the main bed where your original crowns have stopped producing or died.
Yes, you can dig them up and easily transplant elsewhere. I pull out the older plants on a three-year cycle and replace them with the young ones.
@@GardenerScott Thanks. I will be buying new plants and moving them to a higher place in my garden next spring. The area they were growing was always too wet and I had way too much rot and bug problems.
Nov 2, 2021 planting runners right now .
Thank u

Getting excited about strawberries!
Excellent video... I love it that you have nurtured successive generations of your initial berry plants so long ago! Inspiring! I'm just getting started with strawberries and I really appreciate your thorough and clear presentation. Blessings!
This is amazing... I have only ever tried cloning currant bushes, and this year I figured Id try to do so with some strawberry plants I bought early in the spring. The amazing thing is that by dumb luck I did it EXACTLY like you just showed. The single difference being that instead of using aluminum wire I used galvanized fencing tacks to hold the runners down... :o
I've got Quinault, Mara des Bois, All-Star, Tri-Star, Honeoye, and Ozark Beauty in various garden areas. Last year All-Star was the most prolific for berries and Mara des Bois sent out the most runners. This year, so far Quinault had the tastiest and most berries and Ozark Beauty is sending out runners. Each has their pros and cons, but I love experimenting every year.
Strawberry experiments are the most fun~ We have hundreds of strawberry seedlings and we can already see some of the genetic differences in them, and there are even a few that have stayed compact, while the rest grow long stems for each leaf. There were even a couple that made really dark leaves, and a few that made three single seed-leaves instead of two.
Excellent! Thank you!
oh my what agreat idea. Thankyou
Your videos are so thorough and easy to follow. Thank you so much.
I am trying to plant my runners now. I hope they will produce fruits.
This was so helpful. I’ve just started my runners in pots. Thank you!
I’m growing strawberries in a greenstalk garden tower. My squash leaves are giving them shade during the summer.
Excellent video! Clear, concise and easy to understand. Thank you so much for the great content!
Thanks for shearing this video Scott very informative 👍
Please consider creating a video on how you overwinter strawberries in pots and in the ground. I live in zone three where we get lots of snow and hard freezing temperatures from Nov to April. Thank you
You can dig the planters into the ground against the south side of your house to over winter, so that they get as much reflected heat as possible, or keep them inside a garage or something protected from the wind.
I am planning a video to show preparing the garden for winter and will be sure to discuss strawberries. Thanks.
Loved this video on potting up runners for more strawberry plants 🍓
Growing three planters of sweet Charlie strawberries, my first season growing fruits and veggies
What a great way to get more strawberry plants. I will have to try that.
Thanks for another great vid.
7:37 I bend hairpins or french hairpins.
I have been told by a commercial straberry grower that the runner will not deliver the same amount of fruit as the mother plant. Apparently with commercial varieties they would have a "grandmother" plant and tissue is propegated up from this plant to make the "mother" plants. This is done in a laboratory. Then after this happens the mother plants produce well for about 1 or 2 years max before it's then thrown away. So they are constantly drawing tissue from the "grandmother" plant to make "mother" plants.
It's certainly efficient to take runners but I wonder if it's anywhere near as productive. If you look at commercial growers they get way more fruit that what is shown in this video. They also have different varieties that are not able to be purchased by general public too but I am sure if runners were a good way to run a farm they would do this.
Oh my gosh that is the best way I've ever seen! I will definitely be doing this when I get home thanks very much for the tip
It makes me feel better to see your 'lawn' and compare that to my own. Let's just say, it's not a priority. But the garden's looking great! I'd like to get garden beds and trees all over the yard to the point that there is no lawn left.
Great Strawberries to come... Thanks for sharing this information.

Brilliant!! Thanks for the information!!
I’ve been growing them from the seeds at the bottom of my smoothie there growing like a charm
When is the best time to grow strawberries from seed?
WantToBeOrganized I started mine in early spring indoors hope that helps.
smoothie seedlings are the easiest way too~ We have tons of strawberry seedlings in the window as well, started in the last month or two, and they are still mostly tiny but they are just starting to get their 3-leaves now. I'm currently digging up the best microclimate spot in the garden to give them the easiest time through the winter, but expect to keep a lot of them inside for as long as possible, just in case the varieties we collected seeds from were bred for warmer climates.
Great video, thanks for the tips!
Great video. I understand how to grow strawberries now. Thank you!
Thanks!
Good idea. Thank you
God made a farmer ❤. Paul Harvey
A master gardener with a diseased, dead lawn?!? A little ironic, don't you think? I liked this video and I'm going to relocate a new bed from the new runners.
I don't have a lawn. I have a landscape with native plants growing in open areas that I haven't developed yet.
@@GardenerScott lawns are a waste of good earth
Nice video. I havent grown strawberry's yet. They are on the list for year three, next year. I already bought some seeds and I will be starting them inside but I may buy a few plants to help get them going faster. It may take a couple of years before I get to try this method out, but I am bookmarking the video so I have the info when I need it. They are going into a kiddie pool I just rescued from the garbage.
Scott, What is a Wonderful Strawberry plant to plant
For me, I've had the best success with Quinault. Check with your local nursery to see what they recommend in your area.
Thank you so much. May i ask, how do u keep ur potted strawberries alive in winter? Greenhouse??
I usually transplant them before winter arrives. It is difficult to keep them alive in the small pots. For bigger containers, watering on warm winter days and covering in extreme cold can help.
I make staples from lengths of the runners i cut off
Thank you Scott 👍🏼
Awesome Scott, thank you 😊
Hi Scott, awesome video! Very informative and I love how you go step by step. I will definitely be doing this in the next couple of weeks. Quick question : on average, how many years do you recommend before ripping out the mother plants and replacing them with the "babies"? Eventually the mother plants don't produce as much fruit, correct?
Over several years, a strawberry plant "will climb out of" the soil, as the crown keeps lengthening, and when it faces upwards, it will gain height over the ground. In it's natural habitat in a forest, this keeps the plants from becoming buried. It's one of a combination of several things that can lead to the collapse of a strawberry patch, but if you're on top of things every year, there shouldn't be anything to worry about.
Brilliant video! I knew nothing and now I feel like I am prepared to plant strawberries. Thank you. Is there something I need to do at the end of the season to over winter them? How do I know when their season is over?
I don't do anything special at the end of the season. The leaves will naturally die and turn brown. I leave them in place as protection for the crown in winter. Some gardeners remove the leaves and cover the plants with mulch for protection, but I think that's extra work. Once green emerges in spring, I remove the dead leaves.
@@GardenerScott thank you! I would have thought they died. I will know now that they are just “resting “.
love the video
When propagating strawberries, decide how many plants you want to work up to, and how long it will take to get to that number of plants. Strawberries on average propagate 7 times per year. while runners are usually the way to go, there are very important reasons to grow strawberries from seed in addition, although it's more advanced, merely due to the level of climate control that strawberry seedlings need. Diversifying the genetic pool of the strawberry patch by growing from seed is wise and worthwhile, and it's fun to try and make your own cultivar and to see all the genetic differences of each plant. Nothing is lost from trying if you keep the original plant too. We have several hundred strawberry seedlings in the window, as our patch collapsed a while ago, so growing from seed for us was the fastest and safest option.
Is it advisable to clip off the runner right at the mother plant to allow for growing that new plant in a separate area ? Very helpful and well done video !
Yes, once roots have developed on the new plant, clip the runner right at the mother and again at the new plant.
Thank you so much for this video!!
Watching this now but I’m sure it will be amazing like all the others I’ve seen so far!! Thanks for the cattle panel hook up!! I’ve wondered where some of the big homesteaders got them!! I’d love to be there for your live videos? Is it any particular time? I know you do it Monday’s!!
Thanks! I do the livestream on Mondays at 10:00am Central time, 8:00am Pacific time.
Could I put the sprouted new potting soil to keep it going out to keep going ?
How can I make strawberries to produce or bear fruit throughout the year, and what natural can I feed strawberries with to keep it alive?❤🎉🎉🎉
First, it needs to be a strawberry variety that will produce through the season because not all strawberries will. Good soil, lots of sun, and regular water will do the rest.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I just planted a new strawberry bed. Should I pick off the flowers in the first year?
No, leave the flowers on. Strawberries can produce well in the first year.
Winterizing Strawberries
What is the best way to prepare my strawberries for winter? They are in one of my green stalk towers now and they are looking real good.
Should I try to remove them from the green leaf and plant them in one of my raised bead for the winter and cover them with straw?
I am in Alabama winters are not too bad.
Thank you
John
You may need to move the GreenStalk into a sheltered area and cover it.
Thanks for the nice video😊where abouts on that runner are you cutting it away from the mother plants when ready??
You'll see the runner turn brown and dry. It can be cut off anywhere. I usually cut it twice, near the mother and near the daughter.
@@GardenerScott Well thank you Gardener Scott for taking your time to answer that question sir! Be safe out there👍🏼
How do you keep your strawberry plants alive over the winter? Just leave them?
I just leave them in the ground. In zone 5b they come back every spring.
That's interesting. I just cut off the runners that have roots and stick them into the ground elsewhere without staples, and they take without a problem. Why do you keep them attached to the mother plant until they root into the pot - because the mother plant gives them extra energy? Also, I want to start another bed in an area that already has annual plants that I want to grow until winter (kale & broccolini). Could I follow your method and somehow keep them over the winter? Would I just leave them outside with the existing patch and attached to the mother until spring or cut them off when they root into the pot and take them inside? If I take them inside, would I leave them in a dark, cool place to go dormant?
Most importantly, keeping the runners connected will keep them from wilting if they have no root to speak of. They can be put in the shade if they are clipped off, but plants growing in the shade will need to be hardened off later, as they will no longer be used to full sun. Oh, both kale and broccoli will live at least through the second year, so keep them in the garden bed where they are for another season and they should come back for a second year. As long as the strawberries aren't left in those tiny containers outside over winter, either dig them into the garden with enough time to root in deeply or do all the things you mentioned and it should be fine.
I keep them attached by the runner to get that extra mother energy until they're well-rooted. You can put a number of the small plants in a large pot and overwinter in a shed or garage. Or you can leave them in the ground and then dig them up and transplant in spring.
Thank you Gardener Scott - I think the easiest thing to do would be to leave them where they are at this point and re-locate the rooted runners in the bed in spring when I get it changed over and the things in it now are toast, though I would like to re-locate a scarlet kale plant so that it will produce seeds for me - I wonder if it will survive a re-location at the beginning of its second year...
Any videos on disconnected runners. How to plant those! I have a hanging strawberry and want to disconnect runners as ground cover. Hope i make sence. Thanks
The runners need to root and grow before they are disconnected from the mother plant.
You expanding your patch
How many strawberry plants do you have
Oh it’s from 2 years ago
This almost doesn't need to be discussed if you look at the distance between plants the runners send out. They know what they are doing.
Why wouldn’t you prune the runners into the pots instead of keeping them attached?
Great video btw!
The runner tips die when detached so they need to root first. Thanks.
How wide are your beds? I'm looking at taking out the plants in the front yard and planting either raspberries or strawberries in front of the house. It all depends on what the Mrs. says. That flower bed is about 2 1/2 feet wide. Thanks for any advice.
The tall beds with strawberries are three feet wide. Your bed would be a good size.
Hi Mr Scott.
So, you propigated 2 nodes from the same runner. When you're ready to replant, are you just cutting the runner in between to separate the two plants?
Yes. I wait for the roots to develop on the second plant and then cut the runner.
Great video! I just did some of that earlier today. Once your bed fills up with plants, how do you go about amending your soil? Just a liquid feed?
I add organic mulch in addition to liquid feed. Compost as mulch in spring helps too.
After the plants are potted and established and cut from the mother plant. At what time do you suggest planting them in the beds? I live in zone 7 and have several plants in pots using this method but not sure if I should keep them in the pots until fall or go ahead and plant in my beds.
You can plant them any time after the roots have established. If your summers are very hot you can keep the plants in a protected spot during the day and then plant them when conditions are less harsh.
I’m in love with your shirt! Are the ones in your merch store that same shade of green?
Thanks! There are shirts in the merch store in the same shade of green.
@@GardenerScott thanks, I went ahead and bought mine :) Keep up the good work, it’s helpful for so many gardeners!
Thanks! That’s great! Now I need aluminum wire...
Remind me why you grow vetch?
I grow it primarily as a ground cover in fall to benefit the soil. I also grow it in some beds because the flowers are great for beneficial insects and so I can collect the seed to keep growing it.
Do you still get some runners from the same parent plant each year? Just keep cutting them back? Or do you eventually pull the parent plants out after a few years? Very good video! Thanks!!!
It varies slightly be variety, but I get runners each year. After three years the fruit production falls dramatically so I usually replace parents by that point.
Do you cut them from the mother plant after they've rooted?
Yes, after they root they can be separated from the mother.
My strawberries died last year as the season was over and I live in New York, can I bring those plants back to life and replant them this season?
They may have gone dormant and might return. If the crown is dry and dead it won't return and you'll need to replant.
The Lord Jesus made delicious strawberries!!! Yummy yummy to my tummy!!
that would be God.. God made strawberries
The Lord Jesus is God in the flesh; as it is written in the Bible, the Word became flesh.
@ Gardner Scott, good afternoon, just came back from Lowe's for ( Pete) and tractor supply , can I put some straw down first and then some compost work in a little bit then when I plant put my straw on top to hold in moisture thanks Gary R from AZ
Sure. Peat is good for holding soil moisture and straw is a good mulch to reduce soil moisture evaporation.
@ Gardner Scott Thanks Gary I purchased my cattle panel today hopely try to bend into shape
Can you just cut the runner and put those in the new spot you want them? I don't want to take the extra potting step if I have an empty bed to put them in
You can after the runner as rooted. The small plant won't grow roots if it's pruned off too early.
I have overgrown bed . I need to know how to dig up and divide ? . Then can I plant in pot ? I have no room in the bed and want to share plants with my neighbors.
You can dig up individual plants and pot them.
@@GardenerScott Thank you !
Can you tell me the size of the bed that you would recommend for strawberries, and how many plants that you would put in said bed?
It depends on your space available and how many strawberries you want. Many of my beds are four feet wide by eight feet long. That will easily hold more than 100 plants.
Can I cut the runner then plant in another area or do I need to leave the runner and do as you are showing?? Love your content once again❤️🍓
If you cut the runner before it roots in, it will need shade to keep from wilting. A lot of transplanting advice involves clipping leaves to reduce wilting, but it also needs the energy to make the roots, so it's a balancing act~
@@NashvilleMonkey1000 The more roots you let it form before moving it the better.. Keep it well watered until roots are established.
Thanks! The runner should develop some roots before it is cut. You don't need to use a pot. You can move a runner that has rooted in the soil into a new spot.
Do you know of any strawberry cultivars that are zone 10a hardy? I seem to have a tough time with berries in South Florida.
I grow many types in 10B. Your local nursury should know the best for your area. Make sure your soil is sandy and well drained. It could be your soil is too wet if your not having luck. Also make sure you don't bury the crown.. Only bury the roots. Try a few different types of strawberrys, and find what works best in your garden.
Zone 10 can be difficult for growing strawberries. Check with your local nursery to see if they have any recommended plants.
northy Land Thanks so much for the advice. Will keep searching locally and see. Any luck with blueberries? I heard Rabbit Eye Blueberries do well south.
Gardener Scott awesome, thanks. 👍🏼🌱
The weather in Southern Florida is probably similar to that in Taiwan where I live. Here the strawberry plants die in the summer except in the high altitude areas. The farmers from the mountains start to provide the young plants with roots in October. If we plant them in Oct. we will get first batch of fruits in Dec. Most strawberries are harvested in Feb and Mar. There are a few in Apr. Game over in May.
How do you make clay alkaline soil into a decent garden?
By amending a lot with a lot of organic matter.
I don’t know this happened, but the my strawberry plant broke off the very top. It is new is year and it was growing good. It even has a runner. Can stick the part that broke off back into the ground?
If the crown still has some roots attached you can try re-planting it. If the crown broke off above the roots, it may not work, but you can try it.
Is anyone else looking for heirloom everbearing?
Will you let them grow up the trellis? Will they grow up?
They really don't grow up. The plant only reaches a few inches high.
You can actually just cut the runner off and plant it. It won't be running down the original plant then
How many kinds of strawberries are there, and which is the best of all?
There are hundreds. I enjoy many different varieties without a favorite. Personal taste varies and I like them all.
