Strawberry Runners Explained, How To Grow Strawberries From Runners

- What Are Strawberry Runners And What Should We Do With Them? Most Strawberry mother plants send out several runners (stolons) every spring/summer. These runners are akin to a tomato sucker and are a vegetative offshoot of the main plant that's trying to become a plant on its own. This is great and all, and a fantastic way to expand your Strawberry patch for free....however, they take energy away from the main plant.
In this video we explain exactly what Strawberry runners are and what to look for. As well, I show you how I extract the runners to make new plants and the strategies behind Strawberry runner management.

Crazy man! I didn’t know anything about the runners!
Yeah dude....its the secret to Strawberries.....cut them off....every time. Some varieties send out hundreds, literally decimating production for that year. Strawberry leaves are pretty....but they're not THAT pretty that I'd be growing them to get no berries!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms 😁👍🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓
I bought a potted strawberry plant and it's been such a rewarding experience caring for it. I just cut off and replanted some runners and I tripled my strawberry patch
So awesome Luca!! I love it when plants keep on giving and giving!
How are your strawberries going now, 1 year later? 😍
@@KerriEverlasting Good! One of the daughter plants didn’t survive the frost, but I somehow ended up cultivating a wild strawberry plant in the same pot.
i c'ant get enough of your videos! please upload more more... this is so good, i'm waiting everyday for update from your channel. have a nice day my friend [=
Thanks so much!! I am trying! Filming as fast as everything is growing!
Stoloniferous! Oh my goodness that's a nice word! 👌 💖
How's that for a $5 word Kerri!? 🙂
I bought a nearly dead discounted strawberry plant from krogers right before summer began for $4. And now I've had to upgrade the size of its pot and it has like 5 runners and those runners have runners. It's amazing how resilient these little guys are. This is my first strawberry plant so I plan to repot the runners and share with my neighbor. Thank you for your videos. I have a hard time cutting plants so having this information really helps with that.
Right on Carly...keep doin' what you doin'! 🙂
Been trying to get a grasp on these runners for awhile now. Once again you provide the most pertinent and complete info! Thank you so much! Even when you were taking a bite of that huge berry in the end, I wondered, what type that was and then there it was lol. Awesome 🍓
Ha ha Thanks so much Mary! Too kind! I am doing a little short video all on potting the runners up and initial care. Just a quick one but I was doing a new batch and I felt like the was a bit more info to add...
Great video!!! You have a new subscriber!!! Greetings from Michigan! 😊
Cheers Diane, thanks so much for the support! :-)
alright I went out and cut off my runners and potted them, I be excited to see if they grow as well as the tomato cut offs do.
Hey Lisa, they will! As long as the root nodules have formed!
Good info on the runners. Will try this on my first growing attempt. Thanks
Thanks Marilyn, best of luck!
This is literally my first year of trying to garden in the Pacific Northwest and I find your videos really easy to follow very instructional and helpful. Excited to be a new subscriber.
Awesome Lisa, same growing climate as us! :-)
Good video, got some great info, thank you👍👍
Thanks Mark, cheers buddy!
We have several hundred strawberry seedlings in the window now, and in previous years we've had tens of thousands of runners at one time in the patch. While it does make sense to remove runners when you have thousands of plants, the logistics of actually doing so is insane! However with tomatoes, the first side shoots just make the plant bigger so the later season is a lot more productive with them than without them. towards the end of the season, one should remove new flowers that don't have time to finish becoming tomatoes before the frost. Each of us makes it work the way it works for us.
It always feels so weird to remove those flowers in the late summer....every year.....have to do it...still feels counterproductive! Cheers! 🍅🍅🍅
Yeah, the only thing that we actually remove from the tomato plants during the growing season is hornworms, and red tomatoes when we can~
very comprehensive video, thank you!
2:15 Wow, I think I see a twin strawberry! 😃
Learned a lot from this video again. Thank you.
Thanks Louisse, good eyes!! :-)
Nice strawberry plants
Thanks!
Thanks u very much 🙏 🙏 🙏
It is amazing and beautiful 👌👌👌👌i had also plant Strawberry from runners 🍓🍓🍓
Its the easiest way to grow them Yeshi! Amazing plants!
Very informative. Thanks for the info. I had a ton of runners, about to go clip them off nkw
Right on Melvin, best of luck with the bounty this year!
I was just about to search this up. Great timing and great video!
LOL..RUclips/Google knows before you even know! ;-)
Do a video on varies sweetness, uses (pies etc.) hardiness. Also strategies for extending the period of your strawberry fruiting season/period by using different varieties.
For sure Fred! So many Strawberry angles to cover its insane! 🍓🍓🍓
Thank you! THis was very helpful!
Hey Dolly, thanks for that, and thanks for watching! 🍓
I have done that too.. but now strawberries are so old that they dont do those anymore. U can see it in my latest video. 🍓🍓🍓 thank u for very interesting videos u r making 😊🌻👍 i like ur style 🌻🌻
Oh no! Might be time for a crown division! Check this out, its not hard!: ruclips.net/video/-pkXdVStYes/видео.html
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms wow that is very good video too !🍓🍓 but as u see from my video, those lines r so long.. maybe i just have to make a new strawberry field ?
@Savid You can never have enough Strawberries....do it! :)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms hihh that is so true 😁🌻🍓🍓🍓🍓
Hello its so lovely to watched your videos, I made a purchased a big strawberry seeds from Lazada but I'm in a Lowland PH, goodluck to me🍓🍓🍓🙏🙏😅😂😘😘Thanks for all the info love it👍👍👍
Right on Ellen! Best of luck!, you got this!
im not sure why my strawberry runners died after I repotted them on their separate pots. got 9new plants babies but did not turn good for me😫they are all rooted though after I cutted them on the mother plant.i am just so excited for these runners, but thank you for sharing this video maybe next time I really need to soak them first in water as u showed. I am just thinking since they are all rooted, I thought they are all stable.
Yeah, maybe try that. Use the water method to get the runners more advanced with more roots....and super soak the soil that they are going into....anything helps!
My framberry runner is growing roots and new leaves
Right on buddy! Expand the patch!
I 💙 all of your strawberry 🍓 plant video's! I don't have a greenhouse but im pretty sure I could put a plastic top over my nursery pack...Could this work? Do I still allow them to sit in the 🌞 outside on my patio table after I remove the runners while they just sit in the water for a few weeks n then add them to the soil inside the nursery containers? I want to do this correctly. It's my first time doing this and I want to be successful. Thanks 😊
Hi that is very good information. Can we do the same with raspberries or red currant plants.
Hey Sajad, I definitely eliminate the suckers early on from my Raspberries as they take so much energy for no fruit....I haven't had them send out any runners though. Not sure if they do.
I’m going to try to grow strawberries next year 😎🍓
Get some runners from a friend or neighbour and establish the patch now! Planting and harvesting in the same year is a big ask from these guys. :-)
Just one quick question, if you don’t mind. If you had to choose your favorite berry, from the ones you listed in your video, which one would you grow, for flavor?
A good question 😊 i would like to know that too. My favourite is raspberry... maybe 🍓😁
Hey Fred.....Toscana 100%. Its not a heavy producer, but I just can't get rid of it. The taste is out of this world. Only Strawberry plant I have that has pink flowers instead of white.
Thank you for the video. My strawberry plants leaves have red color under their leaves. And new leaves are brown even in the early stage? What should I do . It's in indoor
Love your videos...which varieties can be grown in hot Jamaican areas?🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🤩🙏🙏🙏
I love your videos!! Thank you so much... can you tell me which variety os strawberry it’s best for Michigan weather please
Thanks so much for watching and for the support! Good varieties of strawberries for Michigan are Annapolis, Honeoye, Chambly, Jewel, Allstar, Earliglow.... There's quite a few. If they are selling it in your area, it's likely good for your area. ;)
Thank you 👏👍😍😘
Thanks for watching! Cheers.
Great video!
Hey, where I live it’s been very hot, about 100-103 Fahrenheit. I’m zone 8b. My strawberry plants look sad, some leaves are showing sun damage. What can I do to help them? They do have a thick layer of mulch.
I have higher heat it goes up to 110 degrees
Mist them or shade them...not too many options with weather like that. Shade cloth might be the best choice...not right on top of the plants though.
forged labs of games omg you must be melting. What are you growing at the moment?
The Ripe Tomato Farms ok thank you. I’ll look up shade cloth. Thanks for replying like always. Maybe you can checkout my small channel. 😅
@@FarmLifewithKids always do! Love the content!
I always order my strawberry plants online and two of the sellers where I buy the plants most of the time gives me a runner plant with another runner.I tried to keep the runner attached to the plants alive but they always die, I might try to give them more time to root by placing them in water for about a week.
Thank you for sharing 👏🙏🏼
Hey, thanks for watching! 🍓🍓
My runners die off once cut off from mother plant though i hv put them in a small pot with medium.From Borneo Island Sarawak.
I brought in five jalapeno plants, one pasilla pepper plant.I repotted the pasilla plant and three of the jalapeno plants and
not 2 of the Jalapeno plants they're doing great . I've been using Blossom set spray on them. they still have peppers on them and they're getting more flowers an developing pepperz and I'm growing. they're in my kitchen under lights. from reading this I guess I should keep the fan on... how long and will it chill them at all if it's at night?
Hey Stella, I'm not sure if I'd leave a fan running on them 24/7....seems a bit unnecessary. It won't chill them, but if they are actively growing and producing still, it could desiccate them.
job for tomorrow :)
Ha ha hope it went well barbara!
Hi there! Love the videos, but I have some questions. We planted strawberries in a planter and they have grown quite nicely. Have many runner that I have clipped and need to clip more. The problem is that I have no blooms! Am I doing something wrong?
Are the plants young? Young plants may not bloom in the 1st year. Could also be too much nitrogen so the plants are producing mega foliage and vegetative growth....but no blossoms....
I am in zone 7, it was not a success in my garden, and also lettuce. Help what I am doing wrong?
Hey Malak, sorry to hear that. Hard to say without seeing it in person. Too heavy soil? Too warm?
Do you cut the runners off if you don't see any roots on them Are do you wait till you see little roots on the runners then cut them off of the mother plant to pot them up
Hey Mary, great question. If I am not going to grow the runners, I cut them off as soon as they appear. If I am going to grow them, I wait until they at least grow the little root nubs first.
I seriously can't believe this was made 2 months ago it felt like a second
Ha ha yeah man, we blink and summer was gone...!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms yeah and with the strawberries I do the old school method because I don't have a lot of plants and it's easyier for me to do the that method
@@dom150 yeah man, I hear you. I'm trying to convert all empty space to strawberry beds simply because they are so low maintenance!
I cut the runners from the mothers only after they had a few root nodules each. My question is this: Is it normal for the leaves on freshly planted stolons to go limp? Will they likely survive?
@@sergio1179 they should of they were planted fast, and not dried out, place them in a cool area, the sun is most likely making them limp
Hi I am new but can you please do a video on orange tree 😢
Definitely Viviana!! I just finished editing my lemon tree demo... Oranges are next up!
One of my strawberry plants has three runners!
Snip them off and make more!! :-)
Do all strawberry plants grow runners? I've heard of June bearing plants and ever bearing plants. Are there any other kind? Our summers can get hot. Which variety is best for hot weather?
Very variety that I have grown has produced runners...some more than others though. Go for June-Bearing if in a hot climate to get that bounty all at once and avoid the temperature extremes.
Just planted my first ever runner this afternoon, and its looking pretty droopy, does it maybe need more water? (The soil is fairly wet but not overly wet) or is that just normal until the roots grow out a little bit? (It had like 4 or 5 root nodules)
No. Ca. Growing zone 9 or 9B. I grow or try to grow Albion strawberry. They are so tart What fertilizer do you use?
Hey CJ, great question. I actually don't fertilize. I amend my soils with compost and I mulch with organic materials that break down....but I never actually fertilize my garden with chemical fertilizers! :-)
I started my strawberries from seeds. I noticed the leaves had brown on them so I cut them off. How do I get them to produce more leaves. There are new leaves developing but there’re tiny and taking a long time to grow back. I have them in soil and indoors
Light and nitrogen are the factors for vegetative growth. They need MORE. :-)
How long does it take to market starting from red capsicum seeds? Plz answer me.
Like pepper plants? They germinate in 1-2 weeks
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms which is the best variety of red and yollow capsicum and which company's seeds wood be good for commercial cultivation.
@@imrankhan4966 stokes, veseys, johnny's are all viable commercial seed houses....give them a shout for bulk orders.
can i put my runners in water until i see roots ? or will it just die
You definitely can. 4 minute mark of this video I do just that: ruclips.net/video/LXYe4os3jGY/видео.html
What do I plant now? Zone 1. California.
Plenty of time to plant newly formed runners all the way up to store-bought adult mother plants!
Do you have facebook? u want to ask you some questions about my strawberries please
Ask here so everyone can learn! :-) That way many people can not only answer, but see the answers and we all benefit.
Because my orange plant is dying
Dang...how old is it??
Great information! Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching Sudha!
