September 8, 20214 yr I live in Muang Nakhon Ratchasima, (Korat area). I want to grow strawberries but not sure how they would do in heat and heavy amounts of rain we receive every year. Does anyone on this forum grow strawberries here in Thailand. I would love to hear all about it. I am also open to any and all comments. Thank you.
September 8, 20214 yr . My wife grew them in those urn-shaped pots with openings in them. Bought them at JJ Market. Had half a dozen pots. She used the smaller variety of berry and they did fine in NST, She'd be out there twice a day gently picking off bugs and depositing them elsewhere so we didn't have to spray them. I have firsthand knowledge of pesticide use in LOS, and strawberries are the worst. Don't bother trying to wash them, won't make a bit of difference. Too much rain is bad. She kept hers on the bench that encloses our back porch. Just enough sun, and watered by hand.
September 9, 20214 yr My missus grew them in Korat a few years back, but the gave up as she can make considerably more money from selling blackberry and raspberry plants. About half a year ago she started growing a few strawberries again for the fruit for us. So, yes they can grow in Korat too.
