    I will not take other people's services and say that this method of growing strawberries from seeds was invented by me, but, having tried it in practice, I can say that it works perfectly. So, I first lay the bottom of a small plastic container in several layers with toilet paper and moisten it from the sprayer. Then I scatter the seeds, cover them and wait for them to come on. Sometimes I aerate and, if necessary, moisturize.
    And so it happened. Then I take peat pills of small diameter, I spread them into a larger container and pour water on the bottom so they swell. After that, in each tablet using a wooden toothpick, I place one sprouted seed one by one and with the same "garden tool" I gently stuff the roots. The container is covered with a lid to create a special microclimate inside. Then, every peat tablet with sprouted seedlings put in a separate glass, pouring the sides of the soil. By the way, you can safely fall asleep to the cotyledonous leaves.
    If you sow the seeds of strawberries in the period from January to March, then by the spring season you can get a full seedling.
    There are, of course, nuances. For example, in January-February, the days are short, so I lighten the plants. When seedlings are in tablets, I pour water, pouring water on the bottom of the container, and then peat itself takes moisture as much as it needs. Otherwise, a jet of water can simply wash away the tender shoots. Well, the water itself should be permanent for at least 24 hours.
    And yet - you need to plant only fresh seeds. Tested: the old will not bend over, no matter how much you wait. In the pictures - shoots of alpine strawberries Yellow Wonder, perennial, yellow-fruited, bezos.
