For support can I use some of my surplus 9' bamboos horizonalwize -
rather
than wires?

I've never supported raspberries.


We're at 450' on a very exposed hillside, strong gales etc. Mind you, the
RHS wibble, didn't seem to have supported rasps.

Remember to net summer-fruiting raspberries, or the blackbirds will
have
the lot. For some reason, autumn-fruiting ones don't seem to register
as
'food' to them.

I believe fleece can be used, cheaper than netting, but may only last a
season.
