I planted 4 everbearing strawberries in the spring. They have plenty of
flowers and small berries but the berries never develop. They just
elongate by1/4" then wither away. The leaves look healthy they are not
over-fed not over-watered. I have not pinched the shoots as these are
everbearing, I think the Ozark variety. What is going wrong?

We were into our 3rd year before ours started really producing. Like
yours -- fits and starts -- looked like they were going to go for it, but
ultimately did nothing. Until the 3rd season ... Then they went absolutely
nuts.
