Let's Get Started 

This type of strawberry is grown differently than June Bearers. You can harvest a crop the first year of planting. Multiple harvests are exhausting on plants. Day Neutral and Everbearing varieties will need to be replaced at least every 2 years. Many growers treat these varieties as annuals and remove the planting after frost and replant every year. 

Day-Neutrals and Everbearers fruit during the hottest time of the year so many growers use overhead irrigation to cool plants. Day-Neutrals and Everbearers may runner prolifically and produce no flowers if temperatures are too high for too long.

(1) = Minimum suggested spacing

Set plants 6" apart within the row or grow in containers. 

The riest year, remove all the blossoms that appear during the first 2-6 weeks of growth. This allows the plants to become better established before trying to produce fruit. After removal of the first blossoms, put straw mulch around the plants to provide a bed for the fruit to lie on. Allow flowers to remain on the plants as soon as the plants seem well established. Fruit will follow approximately 30 days after blossom. 

Since plants have already been planted 6" you should remove the runners that form. This produces larger single plants for higher yields. DO NOT ALLOW YOUR BED TO BECOME OVERPOPULATED. 

DO NOT RENOVATE your Everbearers or Day Neutrals strawberry patch. 

The second year Day-Neutrals and Everbearers will produce a spring crop simultaneously with June Bearers. This fruit tends to not be as large or flavorful as June Bearers which is why many growers do not keep plants more than one season. The accumulation of weeds and pests is large enough by the end of the second year that it is not economical to carry plants over for a third year. 

Side dress with the fertilizer 2 weeks after planting and again in July & August. Do not over fertilize in an attempt to get larger berries. Over-fertilization results in excessive leaf growth and poor flowering. Do not fertilize late in the season as this will promote new growth that will be damaged by frost.
