No love, I've never grown one... you may be better off just getting the plant itself (mine were dirt cheap and brill).... it could be tricky to grow from seed. xxx

Hmm i remember when my mum did this in her garden but all i can remember is she had them in a well lit place or direct sunlight, she watered it daily, She got some gorgeous strawberry plants but i havent a clue how long it took x

my MIL does them, and i think it maybe a bit late for this year. MIL's are flowering, and they will turn into strawberries in june/july. I could be wrong tho x

I think FEDup might be right about it being a little late from seed, most strawberry plants i've seen are big and bushy right about now. Good luck, might be worth a google, there's lots of gardening tips out there!
