    Strawberry bed - help please.

    I've got a large strawberry bed on my plot and I've noticed there is some green leaves but most of them have dried into a brownie red colour.

    I did not manage to take runners to make new babies in the autumn.

    Should I just take out the lot and start again - it seems difficult to know how to remove just the dead parts which I assume are the red/brown dried leaves which do not look they are going to go anywhere.

Allotment and Edible Gardening

This allotment and edible gardening group is to talk to like minded individuals about their experiences and plans, to exchange ideas, get advice, sharing of seeds, plugs, etc. - essentially, anything to do with allotment or edible gardening. I am also hoping we can meet up, perhaps in turns, at each other's plots. This group is open to anyone anywhere with an allotment or a keen interest in learning about allotment culture and edible gardening. As it is a relatively new group, we will also need to see how it evolves organically - very much my style of gardening, as chemical free and organic as possible :-) So far, so good ...do sign up, you'll be most welcome.
