How do you get the leaves so big? I'm new at growing strawberries.

They are big because of the good soil I grow them in from the chicken pen. But, you don’t have that, biggest thing is to give them space, make sure they are not in hard packed soil, like clay and keep them watered if it’s dry out. If you baby them a bit like that, they should do good for you. Really fertile soil is a wonderful help though!

@@PoplarSpringFarm I keep them in soil for raised beds garden. I think i over fertlized last year but thought this year won't fertlize. Kinda at my wits end on what to do for them anymore. Got a few new plants this year so we will see what happens. Thank you so much for your help.

Yeah, I would hold back on the fertilizer and make sure they get enough water since their roots are shallow. Make sure they aren’t planted too deep too. That’s a biggie! Hope they do well for you!
