Just a quick maybe a silly question, stawberries in a planter do you

Depends on your latitude. If the sun is low on the horizon much of
the year,
yes, it would help to rotate.

However, if the sun is high in the sky most of the year, plants will
probably
get enough sun.

Personally, I rotate periodically on general principles, including
inside plants.

Rotation-wise, would help to put your strawberry planter on a wheeled
base.

Good luck.
