| This is the 3rd year and second picking season for my 3x12 raised bed Honeoye berries. We enjoyed them last year and wanted more this year so I let all the daughter plants overgrow the raised bed and root and spred in the surrounding paths. I pulled the daughters after picking to clear the paths and healed the pulled plants and roots in compost until I can transplant them. Since many of the daughters over grew the bed, will the plants still in the bed produce next year or should I pull or thin some and transplant the daughters in the original bed? |

| The older plants will produce, but the younger ones will probably be healthier and more vigorous. At least, that seems to be the common wisdom. |

| All my strawberry plants, old and new, are producing fruit but they get eaten by wood-lice which burrow into them. Any organic tips for deterring wood-lice ? |
