A popular berry cultivar, strawberries 'Honeoye' thrives when pruned correctly. During spring, remove any dead, diseased, or overcrowded canes to promote airflow and sunlight penetration. In summer, cut off runners for larger berries and concentrate the plant's energy. Post-harvest, thinning older canes ensures vigorous growth. Pruning encourages healthy fruit production, reduces disease incidence, and aids in maintaining plant structure, crucial for optimizing the yield in the following season.
