here is alot of advice on a few of these sites!!
First, variety sure your strawberries are planted in a rich natural soil.
It's best to fertilize before flowering & right after harvest...
but not during flowering or while it's producing fruit.
"Fertilize early respectively spring before the plants produce flowers. It's other best to have a exotic soil test run, but contained by the absence of a unknown test, apply more or less 1 1/2 pounds of 10-10-10 per one hundred square feet of garden space.
If your berries are the June-bearing type, you may choose to spread another fertilizer application after they enjoy finished producing fruit for the season.
DO NOT fertilize the plants during flowering or fruit production as your berries will be softer, of poorer quality, and will not hold well."

Ron Smith, Horticulturist (NDSU Extension Service) states: "Strawberries respond okay to fertilization twice a year. Fertilize in untimely spring before flowering and right after garner. Use a 10-10-10 fertilizer broadcast over the plants and then river in."

If you over fertilize... the flowers will own excessive leaf growth & won't flower very well. Also be careful not to fertilize overdue in the season contained by colder climate because new growth will be dilapidated by frost.
Good luck! Hope this helps.
Answers: Once a week, I too have strawberries, homegrown is the nicest you'll ever love.
I bought 2 plants in Scotland 20 extraordinary years ago, and now I enjoy 20, all from matching 2 plants, when the suckers start to show, have some abandon pot's with soil within them, next to your stawberries and calmly put the end's into the soil, then you'll enjoy lots more next year. Good luck.
Fertilize during bloom for more berries. If you fertilize previously flowering you'll have lovely foliage, enormously little fruit.
