can i plant different herbs in a strawberry planter?

i was thinking of chives, oregeno, parsley, and basil. is it ok to grow them together in a starberry planter. and also do they need direct sunlight? or shade?

Planting strawberries: in rows or ‘wild’?

I put down two neat rows of strawberry plants last Spring. This Spring they’ve all put out runners and started new plants, so I’ve probably got about twice as many plants, but it’s starting to get a bit messy. Now the messiness is itself not a problem, practically speaking – it’s a pretty small patch and I can still reach all of them. But I wonder if it is best for them to have space? Should I keep plucking up the offspring, so as to keep maximum root space for the more mature ones, or just ‘let a thousand flowers bloom’, let evolution have its way, and hope for more berries in the end?

How do you get strwaberries to not come up?

We have about 200 strawberry plants. we have had them for about 4 years now and all of the berries are small! we mow them down each year, and right now there is not many weeds :) so if we till them under more weeds will come up, and the strawberries will to!!! :( What do we do? my mom does not want to use any chemicals. can we still do it with out chemicals or is that the only way?

frustration of non tropical plants?

Hello every, I live in the tropics ( the Caribbean to be exact ) and i have been growing fruit tress accustomed to the tropical zone. However, i want to grow plants that are not of the tropical zone. for example, berries such as the strawberry, blueberry, currant etc. Any help u can give me will be well appreciated and i know the the climate in the tropics may not be ideal for what non tropical plants need. I really need the help you can give me ( oh and i don’t think i can afford a green house. I live in St Vincent and The grenadines). thanks for reading this.

This is the basic tips from PVZ: – Sun, sun, and more sun. Plant as many sunflowers as quickly you can; two columns of sunflowers is a good foundation for your sun economy. – Use cheap one-hit-kill plants like potato mines and squashes in the early stages of a level to give yourself time to plant more sunflowers.

What is wrong with my strawberries?

This year my everbearing strawberry plants in my garden had a HUGE yield, but they all turned out completely mutant. The plants seemed otherwise healthy, but all of the berries were misshapen–like, the seeds would cluster at the tip, and then there would be a big bare bulge at the top. They tasted fantastic, but I would like to know what I might be doing wrong so I can prepare for next year!
