Keep or cut the blossoms?  
My strawberry plant is already starting to make blossoms. I’m in Seattle (Zone 9) and not sure if I should trim the blossoms to help the plant focus on growth now and nurture blossoms in a few weeks. Or should I just let the blossoms go? It’s a well established plant but only got like 5 berries last year.
