Barbara,
Great idea.
If the plants look as poor as they did last year I
can take them across the street to Penn State University. The have a good plant
pathology analysis program. I had just assumed that the plants were virused, but
I will watch them this year and see how they do.

Hi Bill--we had the awful drought last year here too in
Northern VA that
followed the early cold snap. My strawberries dried
out by the end of
summer--since last year was their 4th year I went ahead
and pulled them.
Can you send any of the plants out for testing to
confirm or dispute
virus at play?

Maybe it was merely the effects of the
draught here last year, but some
of the plants were small with small dry
berries. I really should see
what they are going to do this year, and water
appropriately if the
weather is dry again. The plants have been in place
for about 5 years.
I did pull some of the runty looking plants and set
new runners to root
in their place last year. Maybe the plants were just
getting old.
