Cheating Stores out of Strawberry palnts

[Kenneth Nguyen]

I have a ton of wild strawberry plants and 1 strawberry plant from Lowes. The strawberry plant from Lowes has produced a runner and many strawberries, except a rat ate all of them. After that incident, I wanted to return the plant. Then I thought of buying like 5 strawberry plants from lowes, wait for them to produce runners, and then return all of them. Thus leaving me with free strawberry plants. Has anyone tried this?

You can't do it now that you have exposed your own scam! LOL!

Also, it will take a while for the plants to have runners!

True, but I dont mind waiting as Lowes gives 1 full year to return the plants

Lmao! Why stop there? Why not buy 100 strawberry plants, plant them, wait, eat the strawberries off, then dig them up and return them? Claim they just didn’t meet your taste expectations and you needed to be thorough in your field testing.

No, because that's stealing.

I dont believe it is stealing as runners come out of strawberry plants by nature, and Lowes will accept returns for 1 year. Its merely using nature to get strawberry plants

With actions like this you give all of us honest gardeners a bad name.

How so? I merely let nature make strawberry runners

If the plants "belong" to Lowe's for a year, as you contend.....so do the runners.....

Technically not, as the runners are basically the strawberries offspring. It would be saying that when a parent has a kid, the kid belongs to the grandmother.

Hahahaha.......you have fell and hit your head........

What I spoke of doing, is perfectly fine and fits all rules within Lowes... I suggest you search up their 1 year guarantee.

If Moneys a Problem There are much Easier ways Just Ask Someone with Strawberry plants for a few runners when they are thinning out. Gardeners love swapping cuttings and plants you just got to get out there and chat to them a little

You bought the plants. Lowes sold them. There is nothing wrong with the plants. Lowes is in the selling business not in the loaning plants business. You are a thief by your actions.
