Will update this once/if they produce berries.
Let me start this off by prefacing that I didn't get to them until one day after they were delivered into my mailbox. The mailman also bent my package in half in his way of stuffing my mailbox, which broke off a couple of baby shoots coming from a couple runners.With that out of the way, out of the plants I salvaged a day late, 7/10 are now growing and look healthy & great. 2/10 of the plants look dead. 1/10 was rotten and is for sure dead.I simply mixed soil conditioner into an old 7 gal pot with soil I had lying around, and put them all in the deeply watered. They're probably not far enough spaced from one another, but because I lost some, it's probably okay for now. They won't get crowded for a little while.I stuck mine under a 72watt LED grow light I also got off amazon. Look for the VOGEK full spectrum if interested. Within a couple days they have already taken off in growth. Make sure if you do indoors that you have a small fan for circulation, and when putting a saucer under a plant, you make sure that they are never sitting in standing water. That will cause root rot and your white berries will die. One of the biggest ways to kill a plant is noticing that it looks unhappy, so you water it more, but you didn't realize it was unhappy because the roots were rotting from being watered too much already. Let your plants dry out first! Not totally dry out, but your finger shouldn't be touching wet soil if you stick it in the dirt.I would not recommend putting these outside until they get bigger, because I've grown regular strawberries before, and TONS of critters and birds love to snack on them. Some of the other reviewers for this product stated that their outdoor strawberries were eaten. Baby plants are also delicious to a lot of animals, so I highly recommend keeping them indoors until they get bigger. There's also elements you can't control outside such as if the sun is shining too harshly on them for too long, or if they dry out quick, or if it gets too windy, or rains too much. I actually may just keep mine indoors indefinitely so I don't even deal with pests.

So far, 90% dead, last one struggling
A friend and I split the 10 pack of pineberries in half. We both planted them indoors in planters but they were at our respective houses so each half had different growing conditions. One of the roots looked like it had been split in half giving us a total of 11 plants because we planted both. Of the 11 plants, 3 were just dead and never sprouted, 2 sprouted a little and died within a day or two, 5 grew leaves that withered and died, and the final plant is struggling with barely any leaves because the first set died but it put out some new ones that are tiny. We planted them a month ago. We followed the included instructions (with the exception of testing the PH of the soil because we were using fresh potting soil) and have still had such a horrible crop.Can't comment on the flavor because I don't think dead roots would taste very good and haven't gotten nearly enough plant to grow fruit.

Good Product, Good Packaging, Good Instructions
My package came with 12 crowns total (two of which were a bit scrawny). Of the 12 I planted, ten crowns took successfully. Some of the crowns had roots growing at a bit of a sharp angle relative to the crown, but it wasn’t hard to work around, and those plants are still growing in fine.This was my first time planting anything bareroot, but the process was easy enough, and the vendor went above and beyond to include a detailed instructions sheet with “Do”s and “Don’t”s.Huge thanks to the vendor for making these available at a solid price! Looking forward to see how they fruit in the spring.

Would highly recommend.
These pineberrys showed up in fairly good condition. I was surprised that they had shown some growth already. Roots were a little dry but after soaking for an hour in water I repotted them to stay inside for the winter.With in a day of sitting under a grow light I’d say at least 8 plants had already turned green ( showed up with the sprouts looking mostly white) so it was nice to see them rebound so fast. The last 2 the sprouts did die back but are producing new stems and leaves already.The seller seems like he cares for his plants and is willing to work with you if some plants show up dead based on the card with instructions that’s provided in the package.

Only 3 survived!
Out of 10 only 3 started to grow. Pretty disappointing.
