Time to renovate the June Strawberry beds. Do this before mid August or you may damage the next years crop, as the new buds will be nestled down in the crown waiting for next spring. This is not needed on beds planted this year, just let them continue to grow and work at keeping the baby off-shoots in the row, keep it tidy or you won't get through it next year.........yes, they can take over quickly! Thin out your rows if you have excess plants. Too many plants is too much competition and not enough room to grow. Less plants = larger quality fruit, vs. small crappy berries. Which do you prefer?
