php trouble adding 1 month to var date

Having problems adding 1 month to a variable from a database trying numerous methods given on the forum:

$row["pchargedate"] returns 2018-03-01

$newduedate = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+1 month', $row["pchargedate"])) ;
-returns 0000-00-00

$newduedate = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+1 month', $row["pchargedate"])) ; }
$newduedate = date ( 'Y-m-d' , $newduedate );
- returns 1970-01-01

$duedate = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $row["pchargedate"]);
$duedate = $duedate->format('d-m-Y');

if ($row["pchargedate"] == '1' ) { $newduedate = strtotime ( '+1 month' , strtotime ( $pchargedate ) ) ; }
$newduedate = date ( 'Y-m-d' , $newduedate );
- $duedate returns 01-03-2018 but $newduedate is 1970-01-01

Any help much appreciated.

strtotime — Parse about any English textual datetime description into a Unix timestamp

The Syntex is

int strtotime ( string $time [, int $now = time() ] )

What about this 

<?php

$row = "2018-03-01";
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($row. ' + 1 month'));
//Outputs 2018-04-01

And the syntex you are using is

$newduedate = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+1 month', $row["pchargedate"])) ;

Which is wrong. so it will output by default date

Kindly read This Documentation.
