Actually mine is grown in a flower pot, the advantage is it will limit it from growing too big/tall, so maybe you can try growing too.

thinking but unfortunately my HDB dun have enough sun light access, only a couple of hours in the morning, after that totally no direct sun into the unit...

i have tried planting chilli, also cannot make it, as not enough sun light...i moved them to the garden void deck...., still not growing well..

This was my experiment. I took the seeds from supermart strawberry, well after I eat the strawberries. 😁

Then I plant the seeds.

There are youtube videos on how to plant strawberry from seeds. Basically, it cost nothing, if you're buying a punnet of strawberries to eat.

The seeds are visible (staring in your face, but you may not know they are seeds) on the outside of the strawberry.

Some people picked them off with toothpicks. Some use a knife to slice off thinly the outer layer of flesh containing the seeds.

Then just prepare a pot. Plant the seeds, push them a little into the dirt, cover up with some dirt, water and wait. I use vermiculite (you can buy from nursery). When they grow bigger, you can just transplant them into regular soil or peat.

Most of them don't survive, the lucky one or two I get, they are very tiny seedlings. They take a long time to grow, but once it is established like mine, it grows more rapidly.

They start sending "runners" out, if the runners hit a wet patch like other soil, it can lay down roots. Then I can cut the runner and have new seedlings in another pot. No need to start from seed again. That will be the second gen of strawberry. According to a website, the second gen produce sweeter strawberries, although I've a long time to go to find out.

Now I'm happy just to keep them alive. Fruits I can wait.

With free seeds, you can always try again. Vermiculite helps me.

Previously I failed with peat.
