Strawberry Plants 18 May, Alan James (USA - Zone 10a climate)

If I plant in October when will they be ready to harvest and once they die out in the winter will they grow again in the spring?
Reply
Chives (also Garden chives) 08 Oct, (USA - Zone 7a climate)
They will be ready to harvest 7-11 weeks later, so in December/January The roots are still alive and they will begin new growth next spring.

I saved seeds from strawberries, planted them inside under lights, they sprouted after a long wait and are growing. Plants are tiny and growing very slow. How big should they be before planting outside? It's Oct 1st, zone 8b here. Thank you

Try late October. They should have 6-8+ leaves. Protect them from the sun the first week or two.

Check harvest time in the notes - like 6 weeks or whatever it says.

Garlic 23 Sep, Sonya (USA - Zone 5b climate)
I would like to choose 2 types of softneck garlic. Any suggestions on which two to choose? I also heard about elephant garlic. If it will grow in 5B... I may just grow that type. ?????? Undecided!

Sonya, unfortunately soft neck garlic will not survive the winter in our hardiness zone. That means we get to grow hard neck garlic such as purple garlic or porcelain (music) garlic bulbs. Fortunately we still have time if we hurry.

I live in 10b, I've heard Inchelium Red might grow in my area. I'm trying it for the first time this year - don't have any hopes but you'll never know until you try

I am in Zone 8b and planted nursery plants in February but they have not produced sprouts and it is probably too hot for them to now.
