I want to force some strawberry plants in the polytunnel.My question is what should I be buying

I'm also going to plant some in a growbag to go outside so what would I be best buying as I'm sure some plants are better than others. Don't really understand about plants compared to bare roots.

Hope the above makes sense

our strawberries origionally came from a boot sale, so ive no idea of variety, they crop towards the end of april in the tunnel, normally stop in midsummer with a second crop in autumn, last year they cropped right through the summer , i assume it was due to the lower temps in midsummer.

Gosh that's good.
The stock for the strawberry bed came from 1/2 reduced pots of strawberry plants from the local garden centre in November so maybe I could go back and get some more and put straight into the tunnel. They have big pots for £2.00 , maybe just get a couple
