Default Strawberries in pots

What size pots is it best to use?

I have tried six inch pots, feeding with tomatoe food and hand and insect
pollinating.

My plants are two years old.

Thanks as always,


According to someone further down that was looking for Potato bags and Blue
Strawberry tubs it is considered that putting them in blue poly barrels
(Sourced from farmers and the like) after cutting holes in the sides would
be very productive rather than individual pots.
It gives more plants per square metre than having many posts etc.
