The first step in caring for your strawberry plants at the end of the season is to remove them from their pots and replace the soil with fresh soil. Leaving them in the same soil can lead to disease and pests. In very cold regions it is best to bring strawberry pots into a protected space like a garage or basement.

Removing all dead leaves and trimmings will also help prevent disease and pests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
