  2. What I struggle with is how short to prune raspberries with exceptionally long canes. I've read waist height…which I do…and then they branch out. What are your thoughts/suggestions?

  3. I am not sure which ones i have. They are currently fruiting again. Are these the floricanes then? I think i might wait until spring to see what is growing back. For some reason in my head i thought that you cut back the new cane from the year before.

    I have two pots. One i bought and over wintered and one that was a present from a bird this year. The one i bought didn't really seem to do much other than grow tall but the one from the bird is the one that has been fruiting, so bird poo is really lucky! lol

  4. How far apart do one plant resburry?.. I planted 2 plants in mid September of this year, ( my first planting), but space them out about 3 ft from apart from. each other.. cheers to you!..

  5. My raspberry plants had very thin, flimsy shoots all spring/summer but they grew tall. I tried keeping them pruned to 5-6ft in height, but being so flimsy and fast growing I kept finding the canes arching back towards the soil of neighboring pots where they formed secondary roots at the tops of the canes in the nearby pots. It's the weirdest thing I've every seen! I'm going to keep trying but it made me appreciate the simplicity of maintaining all my blueberry bushes.

  6. Did ya make the game today? Great second half.

    Dad had a great raspberry patch. Every year he would take the excess, pack them in old yogurt containers with sugar and freeze them. What a delight to have them in our cereal during the winter and early spring. YUM!
