Then you can cut the summer ones after they have fruited and leave this
years autumn ones to fruit in the summer next year.

(disclaimer: I'm told this works but I haven't actually tried this yet but I
am doing so this year. Has anyone had any success doing this?)

It works. I've been doing it for several years with All Gold and Autumn
Bliss. However I don't leave half, I leave about a tenth, but that's
because I've got summer rasps as well.

I find these give _early_ summer raspberries, when left like this. So they
start off my rasp season and finish it!
