Default strawberry mead

I've foudn a wonderful mead recipe from the winemanking faq, which calls for
1 qt strawberries.


1 qt = 2 pints = 40 fl oz, or just over a litre (a litre is 35 fl oz)

That would only be 2-3 lbs of strawberries, wouldn't it?

I've looked up the conversion and it implies 28 lb!!
Can this be right??

There are 4 cups of chopped rhubard (about 1 ltr.)

Any ideas?
