same place for many years. If the place is taken on rent, then the
strawberries can be grown in bags, troughs, pots and hanging
baskets. This may give many benefits over the crops of strawberry,
which are grown in open place. The strawberries grown in basket can
give a leading position. They needed a sheltered but bright place to

porches and removed after production of one crop. This may cause

fruits while grown in winter but become more productive when they
busted into life in the season of spring. Strawberries produce
flowers in the starting of spring season as they are close to the
ground. Therefore, it is necessary to grow strawberry plant far from
the place where there is risk of frost. The best place of growing
plant is the highest place off the ground. Frost cause damage when the
temperature drops below -2 degree Celsius or -4 degree Celsius.

pollinate and produce fruits. One more suggestion, which is very

tomatoes, potatoes and eggplants have been grown. These plants could
pass verticillium wilt to strawberry plants, which are severe disease
of plants. In addition, strawberry plants should not be grown on the
land that is using for cultivation from many years. Due to this, the
worms residing in crops will eat the fruits and roots of strawberry
plants. These are few suggestions through which a person, who wants to
