For comparison, here's an ordinary red strawberry (can't remember the variety offhand). I've found that the strawberries have the best flavour when they're watered just enough. Too much and they lose flavour and just taste watery. Growing them in hanging pots reduces the chances of overwatering and, just as importantly, keeps out the snails and slugs. But you have to net them against the birds.
