strawberries

[shaz]

My strawberries seem to be growing and so far producing plenty of flowers but they dont look in that good condition. The edges of the leaves seem to be be going brown and finaly turn to a crisp. These are in the 2nd year, Im sure there not scorched or burnt in anyway with anything. I have added a few pics.
Any ideas if its pests or a disease and if treatable ?

They're fine, it's just a bit of wind scorch probably.

My leaves are like that but it doesn't seem to be causing them much of a problem- it has been pretty wet and windy recently so it would explain it but as long as they are growing and flowering OK then i'm happy

Thank you for the reassurance

Yes, they look healthy enough to me, I'm sure mine are exactly the same on the older leaves.

There's no need to cut them off. Even leaves with brown edges will still photosynthesise and provide the essential energy for the fruits.
