Strawberry Transplant!

In this short video I wanted to share how I transplanted some strawberry plants that I had received from a friend at work.  These are ever bearing strawberries.  I had these strawberries in a pot for about two years before I got around to planting them properly.  

I am re-purposing a plastic 55 gallon drum cut in half length wise and some landscape stones I had laying around.   I also put down some weed barrier cloth to help keep the weeds down and I am hoping this will allow me to better trim the grass around the strawberries.    

The soil was purchased from Lowes on sale.  We used 2 cubic feet of Sta-Green garden soil that is already properly fertilized.   The last time I tried to "fertilize" a raised bed garden I burnt up the my carrots and tomatoes.  This was about three to four years ago when I first started "trying" to garden and I put two parts soil with one part composted manure.... Yeah, I know!  I am surprised that the plants didn't burst into flames!   Or the garden police show up and arrest me for the murder of living plants!  

In the video you will see how I put everything together.  It was pretty quick and easy.  I had a lot of fun spending time outdoors and doing just a bit more to feed our family!


Thanks for watching!!
