Growing Strawberries in the Aerogarden
June 30th, 2009
We recently received a great set of photos from an Aerogarden user who had grown his own strawberries, in his own words here is how he did it;
“1. Bought seedlings from a nursery
2. Washed all the dirt and soil away from the roots: I was frightened to cause lot of stress for my plants. Miraculously they did not suffer at all.
3. I planted my seedlings to Master Gardener seedpods. I did not use the grow sponge – directly to pods.
4. I trimmed roots drasticly. However, the plants did not suffer at all.
5. I fed my garden with the small nutrient tablets for the initial 3 weeks.
6. I got flowers.
7. One week later I had baby strawberries.
8. Today I began harvesting. They do taste really, really good. Just as they’re supposed to.”
