Don’t paint your pots @BismaAbbid it won’t make any difference 

Re: plants(strawberry,lemon,orange,capsicum)

Hi @BismaAbbid,

 

It looks like your strawberry plant is struggling due to both the lack of space and potential insect pests. First, I recommend repotting the plant into a larger pot with a quality potting mix. Adding some compost will improve the soil's fertility and help your plant grow stronger. Regular fertilising will also give it a boost, helping it become more robust and able to fend off pests.

 

Insects attacking strawberries is pretty common, even on healthy plants. However, when the plant is healthy and has a good number of strawberries, losing one or two won't be as noticeable. The orange bugs you mentioned could be the variety of ladybugs, which are beneficial insects and not what is eating the strawberries.

 

Good luck with your plant, and hopefully, you'll be able to taste those strawberries soon.

Thanks Mitchell i"ll repot it in bigger pot.can you please suggest which compost is good for strawberry i used charlie carp every second week. I potted it with citrus mix and then top up with premium potting mix.you can advice as well if they are not good as i am not successful strawberry grower.

Thanks

Hi @BismaAbbid,

 

This compost will be suitable. The citrus mix and premium potting mix should be fine. Charlie Carp is a great liquid fertiliser, but you might like to add some Dynamic Lifter, too.

 

Here's a helpful guide: How to plant and grow strawberries.
