I am training a 20 or so strawberry suckers into 3" pots and most have
alreay rooted.
When should the resulting plants be planted into their permanent position?

Thanks,
Baz

As a general rule of thumb, I give them 5 weeks from the initial
"potting" or latter half of August, whichever comes last.

My suckers came late this year and I'm only now starting the rooting
(trialling rooting in moss bags as well as compost pots).

Thanks Jake,
Some of mine are going to be a little later than that, but are in the
general area.
