      Hollis did you purchase Sweetie Pie plants locally or did you order? If you ordered, what online nursery did you use? I live NW Florida and I believe these plants would do well here.

    When I was much younger my calendar was,
    Jan-March, Ice fishing
    April, Mud season
    May, Fiddle heads, and ice out Salmon and Trout
    June, plant the garden
    Early July, Strawberries
    End of July-August, Wild Raspberries, Blackberries, and Blueberries
    September, Apples
    October, Bird hunting and gleaning Potatoes
    November, Deer hunting
    December, building Christmas gifts.
    A calendar well lived 😊
    Berries of any kind were time consuming. Pick 3, eat 2. The basket never got filled.
    TYFS 😊

    The thornless berries are awesome. I bought a bunch of them and a dying plant from Lowes that I brought back to life thinking it was another blackberry but it turned out to be a boysenberry instead and man, it is so good! I've espaliered them onto my wooden fence using some old wire fencing, it works great .I told my neighbors 'help yourself when they're walking by', they are prolific.

    I'm thankful that blackberries grow wild where I live. I simply dug up a few plants in the spring, popped them in behind the barn, and draped deer netting over them - a year later, I've got a freezer full! Thanks for the planting instructions, though - I'll try to amend the soil the way y'all did next time!

    I absolutely love the motion-detection watering system as a deer deterrent. We are in north central Alabama and have so many deer. It’s common to count 10-15 in our less than acre lot. They eat our garden and ornamentals. I’m waiting to see if our thornless blackberries recover from deer eating all parts of them this past fall. Thanks for sharing this product!😁

    Hello from Kansas. I have 3 year old thornless blackberries (unknown variety) that I started from my neighbors ground rooting. I didn't know they should be cut back. I had a bumper crop last year. I had to cover them with tulle last year to protect them from our native birds and other animals. The tulle worked exceptionally well. Tulle is really very inexpensive, and was a great way to protect the plants. Just thought I'd pass on my experience. Good luck with your gardens. I enjoy watching your videos.

    We are going to plant black berries this spring. I already have the bed ready! One tip for people watching. Grow varieties for your area. Your local nursery can tell you which kind to plant. I contacted 2 in my area and they both carry the same kind. One nursery carries a one year old and the other carries 2-year-old plant. Natchez and Quachita are recommended for Kansas. Thanks for the video guys! I was just outside getting that gardening itch. 61° here today with 20's next week.☹️

    Hollis, we have the same problem with moose in the winter eating the little buds off and young branches off our fruit trees. It kills them dead. We have to buy new trees, and replant in the spring/summer after being positive the trees are indeed dead. It’s a costly thing to happen each winter. As our winters/springs are much too cold to use the water sprinkler idea. We’ve had to use cattle panel type of fencing standing up on end, as moose stand tall and can reach up over most fencing to eat much of the trees.😢. Love your channel!

    Thank you for completing the part 2 of planting blackberries. I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated your efforts. Sometimes I wonder how certain methods would work, after watching the how-to videos from other content creators. I’m thankful for this follow up video. Your video has given me hope and what to expect in the years to come, as I just planted three berry plants this year. Lastly, I like how you always thank the Lord who is the source of all things. You planted and watered. Yet God caused the growth. Looking forward to more videos from you. God bless.

    Thank you for the video. When I was growing up we had a boysenberry patch like your blackberries. My father set it up and we enjoyed abundant harvests for us six kids for all our lives until my parents moved. I did not know any of the background of how he set it up or what he did to keep the plants going, but boy, nothing like baskets of fresh berries for my mom to make into pies and cobblers and have fresh on our morning cereal. Now I am thinking maybe I can get something going like that for the time I have left for as long as I have at my current location. It is certainly worthwhile since no berries are as good as those homegrown and picked fresh.

Thank you for all of the hard work that you do to bring us these excellent videos. Cindy
