Many summer residents know that a strawberry bed can and should be renewed every five years.

Otherwise, the yield will gradually decrease – let’s figure out how to renew strawberries effortlessly every year.

This method does not require complicated procedures and high physical exertion – the strawberry bushes will remain healthy and intact.

One bush produces up to five shoots per season, which can be used to propagate the crop.

To propagate, you need to select tendrils from the largest bushes - they must have healthy roots and two buds.

The ends of the whiskers should be trimmed so that they do not produce another large whisker. Also, when replanting, it is important to sprinkle the whiskers carefully so as not to bury the small rosette.

New bushes need to be watered and irrigated regularly so that they take root as much as possible and produce new leaves.

New tendrils will grow from the tendrils, which will form into full-fledged bushes, which are best cut from the mother bush. Now all that remains is to simply transplant them further away.

This way you get healthier and more productive strawberries.
