How Jockeys Earn Money. The average jockey may earn between $30 and $100 per race, depending on the track. A jockey may ride in several races in an afternoon. If he wins, he may receive around 10 percent of the ownerâs winnings, which is usually 60 percent of the purse, although the percentage may vary by locale.
The variety of the strawberry plant determines its lifespan, although a properly cared for plant can produce for up to three or four years. June-bearing varieties require annual rejuvenation to remain productive for more than one season.
Growing strawberries in a hanging basket ensures they're kept out of the way of slugs. Plant five to six plants in a basket in spring, and water every day during the growing season. From flowering until harvest, feed the plants every ten days with a product that's high in potassium, such as a tomato feed.
