Enjoying the fruit of my labor

strawberry

Behold, my first strawberry. It was quite tasty. But it might be my last. The strawberry plants have been looking peaked since they had to spend almost two days indoor while the balcony was being repainted. I'm just not sure they'll make it much longer.

But while conducting a bit of internet research, I read that you're supposed to pinch off the blossoms until July. So I think I will do some pruning and see what happens later this summer. Who knows, maybe I'll end up with two strawberries.
