You will not pick as many strawberries off you everbearing plant immediately but over the course of the season it will out produce a June bearing strawberry plant. Expect one piece of fruit per week per plant from your everbearing strawberries. At the end of the season you can remove the plants and plastic and turn over soil or cover with a light cloth blanket to help prevent winter injury. Everbearing strawberries are not ideally suited for Canadian winters so some loss may occur if not properly protected. Remove blanket in the spring at first sign of blossom and cover nightly when frost is in the weather forecast. If you follow these steps, which can be labourious, you should get red fruit at the end of May for several weeks. The plants will 'shut down' with the heat and then start fruiting again in August with a noticeable decline in yield and size.
