I transplanted my undated strawberries to a better spacing in the same bed and most of them bit the dust. I think your plants maybe just too old now as the newer ones I bought this year are doing really well.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

True.

Established plants don't like being disturbed. Done it often enough when trying to dig dock leaves out! >:(
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
