I was wondering why my leaves and stems of my strawberries are turning red. Am I watering them too much or not enough or is it some other reason. I was also wondering how you know when onions are read to be picked.

If the plants do not appear to have a disease, more than likely the red leaves are a characteristic of the type of strawberry. Wild strawberry leaves tend to turn red.
