Hi all,

I want to get some strawberrys to keep in my conservetory, can anyone advice me on which sort to buy?

Are they still available to buy or have i left it too late?

Finally when do i start to feed them?

Thank you

Lidl were selling some pretty cheaply the other week and am sure I saw some in the garden centres also. Any particular reason why you're goinig for growing in the conservatory? They grow well outside.

You should still be able to get some fairly easily.
You would start to fed when the first flowers appear - same as tomatoes etc.
I agree with Alison - they might actually fare better outside in the ground or in baskets / tubs than in a dry conservatory - they do need a fair amount of water when they start to bear fruit.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the advice, I have no room in my garden, and i heard that you could grow them in a green house, so i though a conservatory might work in the same way.

But having said that i might plant them out side in pots if they will grow better.

Thank you
