Starting a raspberry patch?
I want to put a raspberry patch in. A friend has a *big* patch,
and he's old, so I'll go help him prune. (That means he'll stand there and tell me what to do, which is fine. It's a chance to visit with him. *g*) So these are red raspberry plants. I don't know if they'd be called summer or fall-producers, and have no idea what variety they are, i.e. the name. I don't know if this is a hint or not, but Grumpy John's plants get almost 6' tall. The question is: how to I root the cuttings? How are the existing plants pruned? (Do they fruit on new wood or year-old wood?) As you can tell, I'm without a clue here, and could use any and all advice. Raspberries do really well in this area. TIA, Jan USDA zone 3 |
