    I`ll just look on it as yet another downsize as I am trying to get rid of `stuff` in and out of the house, has to happen as I get older and anything in the garden has to earn its keep

    Same here, I have given up on strawberries, fruit has to earn it's keep & effort over what I can buy

    I do have strawberries, accept what they give, but not worth any bother for me to to do any more that eat them as or if they crop

    I grow mine in hanging baskets in the greenhouse and have had no problems at all

    Some years ago I asked myself this question. :o
    Strawberries growing nicely in a special "barrel" contraption.
    Flowering.
    Fruiting.
    Yet no ripe fruit! :mad:
    The culprit?
    Our old, arthritic Old English! :rotfl: :rotfl:
