Growing Tips for Wild Strawberry Seeds

Planting Instructions

• When to Plant: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors in early spring.
• Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil enriched with organic matter.
• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade.

Care and Maintenance

• Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for runners and healthy growth.
