Should everbearing and day-neutral strawberries be renovated like June-bearing strawberries?
Everbearing and day-neutral strawberries should not be renovated like June-bearers. Everbearing and day-neutral strawberries are most productive when the plants are maintained as large, single plants. All runners that develop on everbearing and day-neutral strawberries should be removed. Matted rows of everbearing and day-neutral strawberries are not as productive as single plants.
A well-maintained planting of everbearing or day-neutral strawberries should remain productive for 2 or 3 years.
