Strawberries 101

[desertgirl]

Hi-
Looking for a good resource on strawberries. I have some in containers that didn't do much last year (which I now understand is normal), but I would like to assure the best chance of getting fruit this year. There are many flowers on them, so that's good...I guess!

Have you checked to see if any universities in your state have webpages? A lot of the big colleges have state specific "test" gardens and the reports are published online. Your strawberries will need LOTS of water in containers. That's not much help I know. I've never tried them in containers before.
