Blackerries - some questions
Hi
I planted some blackberry plants last year. I got a small crop this year and the plants have grown aggresivley. Coupel of questions 1) For pruning I should just prune the original stem fro mthe ground right? That one has gone a browny colour and gone hard hwilst the one ones are greener and fresher. 2) If too many new stems have come out can/shall I just cut down to how many I need for next year? Presumably they will all fruit somehow or shall I keep certain ones? 3) The new shoots are growing VERY tall - some look like they are over 6 feet. The wire thing I made for them only goes upto about 5ft - shall I let them grow naturally as long as they will go - is there any reason to? or can I just restrict the height to a certain length and hope I get as much fruit that way 4) Would I be better of wit hfew taller stems or lots of shorter ones for maximum fruit? Thanks |
