Allstar
90d to harvest
Allstar strawberries burst with a vivid, sun-ripened sweetness and a bright, berry-forward aroma that practically perfumes the garden. The fruit is firm yet juicy, with a classic strawberry texture—tender interior, lightly glossy exterior, and a satisfying bite that holds up beautifully for fresh picking. Enjoy Allstar for peak-season eating, plus its richly flavored berries shine in homemade preserves and quick sauces when you want that unmistakable strawberry character.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I water Allstar during its main growing phase?
During the peak growth period (roughly weeks 3–10), keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy—aim for about 1 inch of water per week depending on your soil and weather. Check by feel: water when the top 1 inch of soil is dry, then water deeply until the root zone is soaked. Inconsistent moisture can reduce Allstar fruit set and size.
How can I tell when Allstar is ready to harvest at 90 days?
Harvest when the fruit reaches its full color and size and easily detaches from the plant with a gentle twist, without needing to pull. If you’re unsure, taste one—Allstar is best when it tastes sweet and fully developed rather than bland or tight. Do a daily check as it approaches the 90-day mark because the window for peak flavor can be short.
