...I've heard eyes and sets for potato sections.<br /><br />We had scads of tiny wild strawberries this year.

But if it's warm enough and dry enough, we plant before it and take our chances. Thanks for the good wishes!<br /><br />Shelley, we do strawberries on a two-year rotation. Plant them in April, picking off all the blossoms so that the plants don't produce berries that first year and can put all the energy into spreading out. Plant another patch the following April (pulling off the blossoms), and harvest the first patch in June. Continue with the two-year rotation for best results.
