Strawberries are so easy to grow that they are almost invasive.

If you leave them alone, they will overtake whatever is near them.

Each strawberry plant I have sends off multiple runners, with multiple nodes per runner.

It is a very high exponential growth rate.

You can start with 4 and have over 100 in 2 years.

I know this because we have a random strawberry bush in a crack in front of our garage but it's just from last year and only making tiny berries right now.

In a couple years maybe I'll have good berries.

I am not aware of strawberry bushes. Are you sure we are still talking about strawberries?

[–] astanix@lemmy.world -2 points 6 months ago

It's a plant lol

Uh, do you maybe live around Missouri? We have false strawberries here.

Does the plant have 3 pointy leaves like this?

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

That sounds like a wild strawberry. The berries won't get. Offer year over year.

Except now you have 100 plants that all taste like shit, because all strawberries now taste bland or sour.

Spoken like someone who hasn't grown strawberries any time recently.
