In my father's commercial strawberry production in the  1940s,  he would use a breaking plow and move the rows over almost to where the middle had been.  This would leave a small amount of the old row to produce new plants.

But, he only did this once for each field after picking the  2nd crop.

Subject: [NAFEX] another strawberry question

Why would it not be possible to till under the remaining strawberry junebearer plants after they have produced, and plant new plants then--in mid to late June?  My patch is on its third year and is starting to run out.  I do have a new row of plants I planted for next year, but I would like to have more of this wonderful fruit.  So does anybody know if that is a possibility?  Could I not till these  3 year old plants under, and re-plant and have berries next year?  Jerry in southern Indiana
