Research indicates that Nemasys is the one and only route for edibles. The nematodes need +5°C soil temperature to survive, so whilst it is unusually mild and higher than 5° now, the temperatures are likely to fall over the next month or so, and I'm assuming that the cold will kill the nematodes. The packet has a very short shelf life, about 2-3 weeks so no point buying it yet. I'm removing the plants, digging over the soil and picking out grubs and potting on new strawberry plants for later planting out. Not a particularly good day.
