##### Containers, Hanging Baskets or Planter Boxes

Fill container with [Daltons Garden Time™ Strawberry Mix](/products/daltons-garden-timetm-strawberry-mix). Compact lightly by hand and water to see what level the mix settles at. If necessary, top up before planting, keeping mix level 2-3cm below edge of pot. Place containers in a warm sheltered spot with lots of sunlight. Protect from frost.

##### New Raised Beds

Add [Daltons Garden Time™ Strawberry Mix](/products/daltons-garden-timetm-strawberry-mix) to a depth of 30cm. Compact lightly by hand and water to see what level the mix settles at. If necessary top up before planting.

##### Existing Raised Beds or as a Planter Mix

Dig a hole to around five times the size of the root ball and half fill with [Daltons Garden Time™ Strawberry Mix](/products/daltons-garden-timetm-strawberry-mix). Place the strawberry plant in the hole and top up with [Daltons Garden Time™ Strawberry Mix](/products/daltons-garden-timetm-strawberry-mix). Water thoroughly. Once the first fruit begin to ripen, an application of **Garden Time™ Strawberry Fertiliser** is recommended.
