I have red raspberries and they are awesome this year. I used to pull all the leaves out in the fall when I pruned. Now I pile all my yard leaves in the berries and they seem to be so much happier. Probably the best harvest this year. I was laughing when you talked about mowing them down. I pull them and mow them all the time. I too feel bad when I just pull and throw away but what can you do. Everyone I know already has plants from me!!

I keep moving the stragglers to different areas of the yard, and gift plants to anyone who wants them. I have a Chow Chow who considers herself a great rodent killer, so do the rabbits, squirrels and rats. Since I started letting her run free in my garden areas around 9 p.m. I don’t have any problem at all. I am having a garage sale soon and there will be raspberry plants , probably for free, when I am giving them away I put them in grocery store plastic bags. Cheap and easy to carry.

Hi Mike, other than the Korean JADAM recommendation to grow an orchard with grass, you are the only organic grower who talks about the benefits of keeping grass along with woodchips and manure/cpmpost. I have a bare patch where dangerous old trees were removed, and a grassy area. I would love to grow berries and small fruit trees. I think the grass would moderate the hot summer heat and cold winter freezes. I am in Central FL where the summers are crazy hot but we also get nighttime temps in the 20s F in the winter. Oddly enough, the winters tend to be dry, too. I am definitely going to look into growing some grass as a cover. Thanks and happy berry eating!

The winter pruning is for shape. I like to go through my trees in the winter when the leaves are off and I can see the branching. At that time, I'm able to shape the trees better and allow for more air flow between branches, get rid of anything that's excessively crossing each other, and just give them a better appearance overall.

We have the same problem with wildlife getting in and eating our gardens. The main difference is that our wildlife are mostly kangaroos and you'd be surprised by how high a large Eastern Grey will jump. During the recent drought and, I suppose, desperate with hunger, they were actually smashing _through_ the wire netting on the fences as well as sailing over. Between the drought and the hungry beasties it wasn't a fun time to be a gardener. We have deer here too. Not native, of course. Escapees from previous attempts at farming them, but shy and no where near as aggressive as the roos. It really makes your heart sink when you discover that all your hard work has been eaten to the ground overnight.

Just an idea. I think he had a pre arranged subscription thing going on, whereby the customers paid him a flat fee for membership etc then they paid a reduced rate for fresh, self-picked produce.

Hard to say without seeing your set up and the climate but don't give up. Study the principles of propagation and continue to work with the plants until you get it.

Great video. What variety is your raspberries? I have Heritage and one other very large variety, but yours are so bushy and healthy. One of mine bears fruit in July and again in September, which is nice. If I cant make jelly early, I can always plan for later on. Beautiful plants! 💚 The mower did a great job and less work and fast!!
@MikeKincaid793 жыл бұрын
I don't know the variety as they came from Shellie's mom, who had them growing at her place for probably 30 years. They are thornless and a great producer.
@marciahofer45023 жыл бұрын
Hi Mike! The largest raspberries i have are thornless and a heavy producer. Maybe that's the variety you have. The problem i had was my husband built a shop andbi had to move the plants in the hot summer weather. I only had a few that made it. They are multiplying. Looking forward to my recovery and being able to take care of my gardens!💚

Not sure of the exact variety. They came from my mother-in-law who had them for probably 30 years. All I know is that they're the best raspberries ever and I wouldn't trade them for any other variety. Someone once said they might be a variety called Canby. You may want to look into that one.

@@MikeKincaid79 Thank you! I'll look into Canby. That's awesome to hear about how you got them, I've heard that plants can adapt to the microclimate and evolve over each new generation of seeds, so you may even have your very own specialized variety!

I have some like that too and what I'm finding is that some blueberries don't do well in some climates. I'm still learning too but if you've given it everything it needs to fruit and it's still not fruiting then that may be the culprit.

Hi, How do you maintain acidic soil for the blueberries?
@MikeKincaid79 Жыл бұрын
The acidic soils build over time. Add a lot of carbon mulch and it will become fungally dominant. As the fungus breaks down the carbon, they will create a more acidic soil that will last.

Beautiful fruit orchard. Too bad Im down here in Portland or Id help pick your raspberries and take some off your hands. I've sern a huge resurgance in interest over wild lettuce. Even discovered I had someone harvest it from my property. In the 90s there was research done on it's efficacy that stated it did not have the opium properties that were historically claimed. Don't recall the source other than it was a university study here in the U.S. Hey if it works...😊 Laughing at you Mike. Well, we don't have to tell her you used her mower and how, you just did.
