How long do they take to grow? Had mine planted for 4 weeks but nothing has grown

Hi I planted mine at the end of June and I’ve been picking fruit off them already. I was a bit sceptical when they arrived as they were very long bare roots and only about an inch of green plant. I’ve been feeding mine with phostrogen once a week. I’ve already had runners which I’ve pinned to make new plants. Hope yours pick up soon.

Will these have fruit this year please? Thank you in advance

We planted ours on the 22nd April outside, Glasgow and we have lots of fruit growing!

Have these been naturally grown? Thanks

I'm not sure TBH. The ones I received have never grown anyway. I purchased more from a local garden centre and they grew fine.

Which way round do you plant them

Roots down. Leave the tiny bits of plant over the surface of soil
