Here are five Twitter threads explaining the life cycle of a strawberry from flowering to harvesting
๐Flowering
Strawberry plants typically begin to flower in early spring when temperatures start to warm up. The small white flowers emerge on long stems and develop into small green berries. #strawberry #flowering #spring

๐ Fruit Development
As the green berries grow, they begin to turn red and become larger in size. This process takes several weeks and requires ample sunlight and water. #strawberry #fruitdevelopment #ripening

๐Maturation
Once the strawberries have ripened, they are ready to be harvested. The fruit is sweet, juicy, and full of flavor. It's important to harvest the berries at the right time to ensure maximum flavor and freshness. #strawberry #harvesting #maturation

๐ Regeneration
After the strawberries have been harvested, the plants enter a period of regeneration. They will continue to produce new flowers and fruit throughout the growing season, with the best yields typically occurring in the early summer.

๐Dormancy
As the growing season comes to an end, the strawberry plants enter a period of dormancy. This is when the leaves turn brown and fall off, and the plants begin to conserve energy for the winter. #strawberry #dormancy #winterprep
