Strawbs re fruiting themselves.

Some of my "irresistable" (thats their name) strawbs that made little plantlets have flowers and new fruits on them.......bizzare.  Don't suppose they will have time to ripen though.

mine (unknown varieties) did this last year but there was too little sun to ripen them so if I were you I'd just cut the fruiting trusses off and get the plants to put their energy into getting strong for next year and you'll be rewarded with huge crops  :D

What do you do with your strawbs after fruiting is over ?
