Can you propagate strawberries by cutting off and replanting the run offs?

Instead of cutting I think you can stick them in the soil and use something to hold them down and  
Eventually they should root

Ok, thanks!

I did mine two ways to experiment. I cut some from the mother plant and put them in water to prop like that \& then the others I left attached to the mother but planted them in their own mini pots and held them down with Bobby pins. Then once they were fully rooted into the soil I cut them from mother. Both work but water took much longer

How old should the offshoots be to do this?
