Hey y'all , I have a strawberry question . I bought one of those packages of 10 (June-bearing) plants at wallyworld , planted them in a prepped bed a week or so ago according to the package instructions . How long should it take before I start seeing new growth ? These are well-rooted (roots 5-6" long) starts . The wife sez she doesn't think we'll get berries this year , but the web sites I've looked at seem to indicate a small crop the first year ... and better in succeeding years depending on how I care for them . I'm on new ground here , haven't a clue what I'm getting into . But we love strawberries , and for a couple of bucks worth of starts and a little work I'm willing to try .
