Stan's back

Hi all.  I'm back.
     Apparently someone "deleted" me from the list.  The list owner said
it wasn't him so I guess I didn't overstep any bounds.
     Hey, it was probably some "computer error", not anybody's fault.
     Anyway, I have a question about strawberries.  (my limited gardening
skills usually make my questions fairly simple).
     I think I remember hearing, a long time ago, that the best way to
grow strawberries was to leave an open area next a strip row of
strawberries so that the runners could grow into the strip.  This new
patch of strawberries would then out produce the old area which you would
eventually remove for new runners to grow into.  I believe they said that
the younger the plants, to a degree, will out produce the older plants.
     Ever heard of this?
     If this is true, would it make sense then for me to plant every
other tier of my strawberry tower and each year make sure the runners
find the tier below it?
     Thanks.
     Stan            The cheap and lazy gardener.
P.S.  My garden is under about 18 inches of snow, including the prototype
pyramid with no heat.  When the garden dries out and I get to set up the
pyramid contraptions, I will make a long, complete, report about what I
did, and how I did it.
