I've noticed that some of my strawberry leaves seem to have been cut off the plant and are just lying on the ground. Does anyone have any idea what could be doing this, or what I can do to prevent this from happening? Thanks for all the help I can get.

Sounds like varmits in the mist charityaz most likely rabbits. Put a little fence around the patch.

Sorry I forgot to mention this is in a raised planter 3 ft off the ground.

Try pepper spray or sprinkle with cayenne or rowcovers; in a raised bed, chicken wire over the top may work. Yep, me too, but not limited to strawberries.
