Planting & Care
Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before last frost. Sow on the surface of moist seed-starting mix, lightly press in, and keep at 65-75°F. Germination can be slow and uneven; cold stratify seeds for 2-4 weeks before sowing to improve results. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant to individual pots and harden off before moving outdoors after danger of frost.
Plant in well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Remove runners if you want to encourage larger berries, and renovate beds every few years to maintain vigor.
