Time to Plant
With temperatures finally starting to rise in the
West of Ireland now is the ideal time to plant your crop of
strawberries for Summer 2013. Plants set down over the next three or
four weeks should be established enough to provide a decent crop of
berries by June or July - depending on the weather. Strawberries also
work will in tunnels or greenhouses and you you could expect a crop from
tunnel plants in a matter of weeks. A good idea is to split your plants
between the tunnel and outside - this will give you two crops of
berries instead of one. Burren Naturally Strawberry Plants are grown on a terraced field overlooking Liscannor Bay in County Clare, Ireland. Young runners plants are hand potted into natural local soil (grass compost), fertilised using natural local plants (nettles and comfrey) and planted using 100 per cent recycled pots and packaging.
