First homegrown strawberries

Yesterday and today @niko.lemark picked the first three ripe strawberries from our backyard garden. They were delicious.

Here is today's pair.

And here's the one from yesterday.

Several weeks ago I bought it over the internet 16 plants. Four different sorts. Two early sorts and two regulars. Some plants were quite big already hence the ripe fruits.

There are many more green fruits on their way to redness.

Yes, you see it right. I put each plant in a separate pot :)

The pots are under the roof by the east-facing wall. This way they are protected from the rain and enjoy the mild morning sun. And later in the day, the wall radiates back the accumulated warmth. The drawback is that I need to water the plants regularly., every second day.

I'll do the same trick with tomato plants in a week or two.

How is your gardening going on this season?


Better and better
