Strawberry runners (summer fruiters)ought to go in by mid September for
fruiting the following year. You haven't mentioned fertiliser,
strawberries would not need much nitrogen, a reasonable amount of
phosphate (the peat would not have any, then potash the next year. the
other thing is I have found from experience that too much water can wash
out nutrients as fast as they are released.
Glad to have you back to put some life into the veggie world. I nearly
thew my computer away, couldn't believe the lack of e-mails.
p.s. If you want to see what life was like without you, look at the archives.
