Great day for taking photos today. This is my strawberry plant. Hope to get some nice ones this year!

The giant bush behind the plant is my green onion! It's growing to gigantic proportions!

Nice! I hope mine do well too! I'm growing them under HPS lights with my VFTs and they seem to like it . . . . hopefully they produce some berries for me.

These seem to well outside. Hoping to get larger berries this year though.. Wonder what a good fertilizer is.

Nice flowers Adam! Ive never seen a red strawberry flower. What variety is that? If you want lots of berries give them a fertilizer high in phosphorus(the P in NPK) and low in nitrogen.

These are regular strawberries - labeled as "ever-bearing". Not sure what colour regular strawberry flowers should be.
