can I just dig a hole and put the strawberry in it?

no, you need the plant or 2 plants depending because they have to cross pollinate (if you use seeds or un-cross-pollinated plants) It is best to go to a green house and buy the plant, they only cost a couple dollars usually. And normally they are already cross pollinated so they will bear fruit.

do not assume to reap a crop in the process the 1st 12 months. actually, you're able to discourage fruit by skill of pinching off blossoms. that's achieved to help the plant replace into commonly used and acquire a sturdy root device. See source for greater coaching approximately growing to be strawberries.

The seeds are the little black things. You don't need to plant the whole strawberry. It would rot and you would prob'ly not get and plants.
I don't know how succesful growing them from seed would be. Give it a try.
But it is easy to start them from cutting/offshoots. If you know of anyone who has a plant I'm sure they would gladly give you a few rooted runners. (Come over and you can get all you want.)

No, the strawberries on the market are mostly hybrids and are sterile. "Planting" is done by taking a part of the stem, treating it with enzyme to promote root growth and putting it in a damp rooting soil mix.

nope. but, they grow like weeds. Find someone who has them and I am sure they will give you a starter.
