This is my first year starting seeds indoors and the first time growing strawberries from seed. I am very impressed so far and I am hopeful that they will continue to impress. I started my seeds using seed starting mix in small paper cups (about 5-6 seeds per) and put them into recycled clear plastic bakery containers (the ones you get the cookies in), poked a few holes in the top, closed the lid and placed them on top of the kitchen cabinets to germinate (70-75 degrees F) and checked them everyday (along with the other seeds I had started). The package said the seedlings would emerge in 30-40 days, on the 7th day after starting 1-3 seedlings were emerged in each cup, I placed them under lights and they are a little over 2 weeks old now with 93 seedling (last I counted) from a packet of 125 seeds that have grown and have one true leaf so far. I don’t have anything bad to say, just don’t be shocked by the size of the seeds (smaller then carrot seeds in my opinion), but if you read the description and look them up on the web, you can understand why they are so small and you shouldn’t be disappointed with the size of the berries, as they will be small, not like the berries you buy in the store, which are of a different type. I can’t say anything about the taste of the berry since I have never had this type of strawberry before and mine are not to that stage yet, but so far I am very satisfied with the results and I’m hopeful that they will taste and look as described.
