Strawberries

Image 1

The image 1 is when we first plants some strawberry plants that we're kindly given to us by another allotment grower on the same site.  For this year our first year we've put them into the ground, but next year with hopefully a greenhouse I hope to build a hydroponics system moving the strawberries off the grow and away from nasty little pests.  I'll post a video on how i go about building the system.

In images two you can just make out a green net around the strawberry plants to ward off ant birds.  However this won't stop the slugs or little insect pests getting at them.
For that you slug pellets and I have to do some research for the insects.
