    Hey Ya,

    We live where it's real sandy so alot of what we do is container gardening.
    We have strawberries in a planted that is made for them. You know the kind
    that has alot of wholes all over the sides.
    We planted watermelon and cantelope to this year. I luuuuuuurve watermelon :)
    Anyhow, we just dug a whole for both in this sandy yard added some humus and miracle grow mix and planted. We've added Miracle Grow Plantfood once and because this ground drains so fast we water ever couple days. We're in a warm climate too.
    Hope this helps.

    your strawberries are gonna take ove, and will probably come back next year. water lightly almost every day for the first week or so. then water heavy twice a week if it dont rain. if it rains, dont water. water more if they start wilting.
