Howdy,

I have a bed with several variety of apparently healthy
strawberry plants but they have produced few flowers.

Are soil nutrients the likely culprit? If so, which one(s)?

Thanks for any help,


Have you been growing these for a while... a few years? Did they do
better the first year of two? Have you let them get too crowded?


When did the first few flowers appear? The plants don't all flower at once.

Did you fertilize them last fall? If so, how much nitrogen did they get?
Too much N can inhibit flowering.

Or what Steve said. Maybe it's time to rejuve the bed with new plants.
