Care & Harvest

💡Temperature: Prefers warmer temperatures in the 65-85°F range and thrive in 60-75% relative humidity. Watch out for browning on the edges of the leaves, which is a sign their environment is too dry. If you see this, try adding a small humidifier near your Gardyn.

🐝 Pollination: Yellow Mini Strawberries require help with pollination to encourage flowers to form fruit. When the white flowers appear, hold each flower gently between your index and middle fingers. Intentionally swirl the entire flower head 2-3 times with your thumb, ensuring you touch the entire surface. Pollination is an art, and uneven or incomplete pollination can cause your fruit to form funny (though still edible) shapes! Once pollinated, the flower will drop its petals and transform into a berry.

✂️ Pruning: While Yellow Mini Strawberries are a compact variety, you may find you need to prune away some leaves to keep your plant healthy and encourage continued fruit production. Follow these vital Strawberry pruning tips:

  1. Never prune back more than ⅓ of the leaves at a time. You can remove any yellow or brown leaves if they appear.
  2. Prune away all runners, or stolons, throughout the plants’ entire life cycle.
  3. Prune your Strawberry roots by trimming away any brown, black, or slimy roots, along with any roots extending past the yPod. Regularly adding Hydroboost to your tank can significantly help with root health (among other benefits!).

🔎 Plant Health: Mini Yellow Strawberries have sensitive root systems, leaving them susceptible to root rot. To combat this, we recommend twice monthly tank refreshes, twice monthly root checks/pruning, and weekly doses of HydroBoost. Aphids and spider mites are common pests, but you can use our prevention tricks to keep pests at bay!

🍓Harvest: Yellow Mini Strawberries never turn red, and instead change from a white-yellow to a creamy yellow to indicate ripeness. Color, rather than size, indicates ripeness. Mini Yellow Strawberries are ready to pick when each berry is a creamy yellow all the way to the stem. For maximum flavor, give ripe berries an extra day or two to really fill out. They should feel soft to the touch, not firm. Harvest berries right off the stem by either pinching them off with your fingers or using a clean pair of scissors to snip berries’ individual stems.

Quick Facts

Strawberries have been eaten by humans for hundreds if not thousands of years. However, it wasn’t until the 18th century that they gained popularity and became a staple in the home garden. This mini variety, also known as wild or alpine strawberries, is a cousin to the red mini strawberry. Alpine strawberries are native to many temperate regions of the world, including parts of North and South America.

These strawberries are an alpine type known for their abundant harvest of sweet, flavorful berries that add a delightful golden-yellow hue to your Gardyn. Strawberries are a delicious source of vitamin C, folate, and healthful flavonoids including anthocyanins and ellagic acid, both of which are antioxidants!

Enjoy Yellow Mini Strawberries fresh as a sweet snack, or added to fresh greens, granolas, cheeses, desserts, or even muddled in a refreshing drink. Consume the berries quickly after harvesting as they do not store well! While most people wait for the reward of this flavorful fruit, the Mini Strawberries’ white blossoms are also edible and can be a delightful garnish or addition to salads.
