Look at my Ranger parked next to stuff

I have twice tried to sprout strawberry seeds…no luck. Strawberries grow great around here, so not sure what I’m doing wrong.
I wish you great abundance with your garden!

I don't know, are strawberries one of those plants that need to freeze before they can sprout?

Thanks Tracy, I've never started strawberries from seeds. I just get the rhizomes from places like Gurneys(here) or this time Home Depot had some. Just look by all the bulbs and bare root fruit plants like grapes and raspberries. Like @IdahoRanger said just clip the runners and replant. those will be clones of the original plant were as the seeds would be altered. They are perenial but last year I killed them from neglect so this year I built a new bed

This entire time I thought you just had a meager XLT trim level.

Don’t you know , Jake….there is no meager Ranger trim!

Great advice Dave & Steve @IdahoRanger. I’ll see about getting some. I read up on starting seeds & striating them, but not so sure how it will do.
I’ll get some from Home Depot or Gurneys. Thanks for the link!

Took a drive to Pie Town NM and passed through the VLA. Those are 25 meter dishes.

where did you learn how to park? so far over the line you can't see them in the picture. what's with the orange ranger drivers not knowing how to park? or is it a requirement? ?

on a more serious note- you never realize how big that array is until you drive past it

Strawberry whoppers. I bought two sets of 10 & some strawberry fertilizer.

Part of my patch were whoppers. couple got huge like baseball sized but most stayed golf ball sized and they all were tasty even with slug holes

When I was there several years ago, there was a guy from Canada in a motor home that had all kinds of alien stickers all over the motor home. And a bunch of antennas. He was sitting in a lawn chair and looked like he was stoned out of his gourd.
