Plant strawberries in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil.
• Choose a sunny location (6+ hours of sun) and dig a hole about two times as wide as your pot.
• Remove your plant from the pot by loosening the soil and tipping it out into your hand. Place your plant in the soil about as deep as it was in the pot.
• Refill the space around your plant with soil and press lightly to compact the dirt, keeping your plant firmly in the ground.
• Water immediately to settle the soil, and add more soil as needed, bringing it level to the rest of your garden.
When planting in the ground, mulch strawberry plants well to keep down weeds and conserve moisture. Water as needed all season to keep soil evenly moist. Feed with an all-purpose fertilizer to ensure your bountiful harvest.
