Cut back strawberry foliage

If you look after your strawberry plants they’ll provide you with generous crops, rich in vitamins and taste, and should last for around four years. You can help strawberries stay healthy and improve fruiting by cutting back old foliage, because when leaves become yellow or brown they’re no longer producing food effectively. By cutting back old and diseased leaves, you’ll increase the light levels reaching the green ones. Also, particularly as strawberries are susceptible to fungal diseases, improving the airflow will prevent these.
