It also explains where to plant strawberries and how to rotate a strawberry patch to optimize growth and minimize disease and discusses the matted-row and hill planting systems and the advantages and disadvantages of each. This document covers soil preparation, fertilization, planting, first season's care, care of established plantings, harvest, and pests.
