http://www.mscnantes.org/92fz6yfb Since strawberries send out runners that create new plants, thinning and/or trimming down your strawberry plants every few years, will help increase yields and reduce the spread of diseases. I did this a couple of years ago for the first time, when I noticed a decline in production. The next year, I got more strawberries than I ever had before. That year I was able to make lots of strawberry jam and it was awesome!
https://alldayelectrician.com/85x9ayf39ahttps://www.elevators.com/f7si7kc6v Strawberry beds can be “renewed” by hand trimming and pulling, or mowing with the lawn mower blade set between 2-4 inches high. This should be done after your last strawberry harvest of the season and depends on what type of strawberries you have. I have ever-bearers (strawberry plants that produce several times throughout the Summer), so I do my renewing in the Fall. My strawberries are in a raised bed, and I like to keep it simple, so I use my edge trimmer to mow them down.

If your bed seems overcrowded, you can hand pull some plants as well. I didn’t think the bed seemed too crowded this year, so I didn’t hand pull any this time.

Another option would have been to add compost and fertilizer before the straw, but this worked so well for me a couple of years ago without it, that I just did it the same way as before.
