Mulching Straw Key For Strawberry Plants Says Extension Experts
Jim Frier urges mulching soon with 3 to 4 inches oat or hay straw or 4 to 5 inches soybean straw to protect buds and prevent heaving. Weather timing varies by region. Henry Taber notes mulch also guards against low temperatures and bud loss. Do not use tree leaves. Remove straw in spring as growth begins.
