Back to The Roots Organic Strawberry Grow Kit — Grows Year Round, Includes Everything Needed for Planting

I’ve bought many of these in the past from online and Target and they’ve all bloomed with no issues. I was really disappointed when my strawberries didn’t grow. I reached out and they quickly replaced them. Thank you!! Awesome customer service

Purchased as a summer project to do with my Grandchildren. I purchased 6 units. I am a retired Science teacher & my hobby is gardening. This should have been a breeze! We eventually used all of the seeds, & never got a sprout. I waisted my money!! Wrote to company & never received a response! Never Again ‼️

Seems like the seeds need a cold stratification period but after undergoing that accidentally after assuming they weren’t going to grow, they have been doing wonderfully for me. Strawberries in general have to have soggy feet, but not soaked, and absolutely need to be hand pollinated (q-tip works great) if you don’t have the plant outside for the bees to do their jobs. The beginning was a bit tough as I poured so much blood sweat and tears into getting the sprouts to grow but they are so incredibly temperamental with watering. You can’t overwater the sprouts or they drown but they dry out faster than the soil so just looking at it isn’t enough and you have to mist them or set up one of those sub surface watering basins as the water tension from just dumping water in, as one normally would, is enough to rip the baby strawberries to bits. Once the sprout starts growing normal looking leaves then it’s pretty easy to keep up with it. Now having the experience that I do, I’d recommend starting this as an indoor plant just as the weather starts to get cool so the plant is producing fruit as you roll into spring and has better conditions to produce a bigger harvest as it would have already done most of its growing during its usual down time. Generally speaking it isn’t a large plant so even now reaching its peak, I can pretty comfortably fit it into any window with lots of light and it continues to grow for me.

Strawberries grew mushrooms everywhere. My strawberries died. I tried multiple times with the seeds included but hopefully this last batch will survive

The strawberry plant starter kit is cool! It comes with everything you need to get started, and the instructions are simple and easy to follow, even for beginners. The kit includes soil and container, so I didn’t need to buy anything extra. It’s been fun to do with child. If you’re looking for a fun and easy gardening project, this kit is perfect! Highly recommend for both kids and adults.

Unfortunately the plant never sprouted. This was one of 5 back to roots products I’ve purchased (3 tomato planters, 1 pepper planter, 1 strawberry planter). I’ve followed the directions carefully and fully for all planters, past and present. I’ve had success with all of my tomato plants as well as my pepper plant. This strawberry planter was the only one that didn’t even sprout after being planted. Will not discourage me from trying other planters, but I likely won’t buy the strawberry ones again.

There really growing and my son loves it

Came with fungus gnats that swarmed our house as soon as we added water. But the seeds sprouted really fast. Just sick of the gnats, we have an infestation now
