What could be wrong with my strawberry plants?
Hi again, I decided to grow a small amount of strawberries this year in a hanging basket, I thought they were doing ok, however a few little clusters of strawberries turned brown & died before they even flowered, now a few of the leaves have turned brown & there is even a tiny bit of brown pigmentation on one of the larger strawberries. Anyone have any idea what this could be here's a picture of the plant in question
http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n.../PICT00564.jpg You can see one of the brown leaves & the small amount of tiny strawberries to the right of that seem to be dying & you can see the small amount brown on the third strawberry from the right Any advice welcome! |

I too am also growing strawberries in a hanging basket. The best advice that I can give u is to make sure that u give it a good feed about once a week using a good plant food such as Tomorite, Miracle gro or a special strawberry food. Also, it is important that u check the soil everyday as the soil needs to be kept moist and keep out of full sun as this can scorch them and the strawberries will shrivel. I hope this advice was of some help to u and wish u good luck. Shelley |

Strikes me one large plant, one small basket. I think (possibly I'm no
expert) that the other respondant hit the nail on the head. Feeding and nutriants. |

Thanks for the replies guys, I've moved two of the strawberry plants into a seperate basket & fed them with my tomato food (I had fed them previously but probably not as regularly as required) Thanks again for the advice!
