High Grade Black Alpine Strawberry Seeds

Black strawberries, also known as wild strawberries or alpine strawberries, are a small and flavorful type of strawberry.

Germination Instructions:

1. Choose a good location: Black strawberries prefer a sunny location with well-draining soil. They can also grow in partial shade but will produce fewer fruits.

2. Prepare the soil: Before planting the seeds, prepare the soil by removing any weeds and adding compost or other organic matter to improve fertility and drainage.

3. Plant the seeds: Black strawberry seeds are small and can be planted directly into the soil or started indoors in small containers. If planting directly, sow the seeds thinly and cover them with a thin layer of soil. If starting indoors, plant the seeds in small pots or trays filled with seed-starting mix.

4. Water regularly: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water the seeds regularly, especially during dry periods.

5. Provide warmth: Black strawberry seeds require warmth to germinate, ideally between 60-75°F (15-24°C). You can use a heat mat or place the container in a warm location, such as near a sunny window.

6. Thin the seedlings: Once the seedlings have emerged, thin them out to give them room to grow. Leave the strongest seedlings and remove the weaker ones.

7. Transplant: Once the seedlings have grown to about 2-3 inches tall, they can be transplanted into a larger pot or outside in the garden. Choose a location with well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight.

8. Care for the plants: Black strawberries require regular watering and fertilization to grow well. Water the plants regularly and fertilize them every 2-3 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Mulching around the plants can help retain moisture and keep weeds at bay.
