Creating a strawberry budget garden is a rewarding project that doesn’t have to break the bank. With careful planning and some DIY spirit, you can enjoy fresh strawberries all season long.
Choose the Right Location
Select a sunny spot in your garden, as strawberries thrive in full sunlight. Aim for at least 6-8 hours of direct light each day.
Gather Your Supplies
Gather the following essential items:
- Strawberry plants (bare root or potted)
- Compost and well-draining soil
- Mulch (straw, wood chips)
- Garden tools (trowel, hoe, watering can)
Planting Your Strawberries
Prepare the soil by mixing in compost for nutrients. Dig small holes, space them about 18 inches apart, and plant your strawberry plants. Cover the roots gently and water thoroughly.
Maintenance Tips
To ensure a fruitful harvest:
- Water regularly but avoid waterlogging.
- Add mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
- Fertilize lightly in early spring.
By following these steps, you can enjoy a lush strawberry garden without overspending!
