    My strawberries seem to be sprouting a lot of leaves but only one fruit is beginning to come out. Even then its still tiny. Can i do anyhting else to help. I feed it every few weeks.

    Also i have a raspberry plant which seems to be doing well. Should i be feeding that as i do the strawberry plant?

    I think strabs are only supposed to fruit every other year..? Maybe this is your 'off' year! No idea about the rasps but I'll read whatever people say coz I'm planting some for next year!

    I only got them a coupl of months ago. They are still small. I only have one pot of them. Does that make a difference?

    I was hoping some kind of Strawberry/Raspberry hybrid had been invented :(
