Well glad the deer pruned mine for me 🙃 . any tips on dealing with spider mites on a second season raspberries? Last year was the first time planting raspberries and all it did was grow foliage but the spider mites exploded before I knew what was happening and then the deer ate what did grow down to the base 😅
Thank you. I'm pretty sure I know what one patch is not the other but for one season I can guess at the one patch. Thank you so much appreciate your videos
You should be able to see the remains of last years flowers hanging onto the branches. If you look in the video when I'm pruning you can see an example.
Short videos are an excellent way to come in, search the topic and get to the task. Longer videos are great for research and becoming really knowledgeable about a gardening topic. I always appreciate and benefit from your content.
Welp… I was given a mix of raspberries several years ago and they have been moved several times by a ‘hubby knows best’ husband who has intermixed them several times 🤦♀️ some are white, some are thornless and so on… I greatly appreciate his help and willingness to go above and beyond… ❤ So I am not sure anymore what needs done with which ones… and- they need moved again since we didn’t realize the area we planted was the cold sink of our entire 10 acres 😢 We had these plants at our previous home and moved them to this home… and then moved them twice… tried to protect from deer and planted in yard but wasn’t getting enough sunlight and so on… Now the current location is not in the yard and has been ravaged by deer and the cold… even though on the south side of our large high tunnel 🤷♀️
Oh Rick, how do I know which kind of berry I have? Mine are thornless. And How do I know which canes bore fruit last year? The grasshoppers ate all my berries so I have no idea which canes bore fruit.
Do you know the variety? That is something that should have been on the tag. If you didn't have fruit last year then it will be harder to tell. Some of the canes will be obviously dead, so remove those and then see what happens this year.
Thank you! I don't really like the flavor of the summer berries and would love more fall crop. I will clean out spring bearers, cut to the ground my Heritage berries and add compost

Just did all this last weekend.

Glad it helped
I like the short format. Concise and informative. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
How do you even know what branches had fruit last year?

I like the short format with the option to watch a longer video. Thanks!
Good to know!
I enjoy both types of videos. This one today is perfect as I am headed up to prune and clean today.
Perfect!
So, are you cutting all of yours back down to the ground?
Yes, we find we get a better yield that way. But make sure you have EVERBEARING bushes.
Primocane is what I have, so which type is this?
Primocane would be Everbearing plants (fall bearing)
yeah I like the short format. thanks for the tips
Glad you like them!
short is good i'm in a lot of pain and my attention span is kind of limited today
Glad you liked it! Get feeling better!

So I am not sure anymore what needs done with which ones… and- they need moved again since we didn’t realize the area we planted was the cold sink of our entire 10 acres 😢
We had these plants at our previous home and moved them to this home… and then moved them twice… tried to protect from deer and planted in yard but wasn’t getting enough sunlight and so on…
Now the current location is not in the yard and has been ravaged by deer and the cold… even though on the south side of our large high tunnel 🤷♀️
Do you do a blackberry vid?
I enjoy your longer videos, but these quick tips are also very useful. Keep them coming!
Thanks! Will do!

Nice video and tips

Yeah, that's what we do too. We tried the summer crop method for a few years and decided it was too much work for to little reward.

Question How do you keep the little worms out of the raspberries?
Spinosad
I need a better idea as to what the worms were. You could take a sample to your local extension agency and they could help.
How often do you spray?
