    Beautiful! Do strawberries ripen a bit more after you pick them? In your basket I spot some not-really-red ones, and now I’m wondering whether I should start picking mine as well.

    (edit: on second thought, it might be the photo and/or my laptop screen… But I guess the question still stands.)

        Ha! I was trying to figure out what happened with that cross-post because of the different username, but apparently you can cross-post other people’s posts then. TIL.

          It’s basically just a front-end feature that checks for URL duplicates, but it can be nice to make people aware of similar communities where the post was also shared on.

          But I agree, on personal posts like these it can be a bit confusing. Next time I’ll share my tomatoes :)

    Ahhh I had a strawberry plant going absolutely ham, and then we hit a drought and a hose ban, and I don’t have water stored up here to water them with… so no ripe strawberries for me! I hope the local birds can still enjoy them.

      Bummer. Same here. Mine are undersized. I don’t irrigate often and have been putting my energy into newly planted trees/shrubs. I want to make sure they survive while it’s dry. Maybe next year I can get some strawberries.
