Please make Part IV!! My wife is sick of me watching I-III on repeat :)
I'm a Mississippi boy myself
Dr. Powell thank you so much for the wonderful instructions on pruning blackberries. I have an unruly thornless patch called Cherokee- I think.
Wishing you good health and longevity.
Ps I love the classical music.
Your the first person I've heard mention rust, or any type of leaf spot. I just lost my very first blackberry to septoria, but hey if your not learning your not living. Thank you for your videos.
Caldo bordeles te ayuda
Thank you for all the detailed instructions!
Thank you Dr.Powell for all the great information on
BlackBerrys.You're teaching is very easy to follow .And I enjoy watching you're videos! Also than you Tracey from "Just Digit Farms for sharing ,Petals with us .All the way from Ohio thank you again💕🙏
I have just inherited an allotment here in the UK which has a blackberry fence around it, I have gone from knowing nothing about blackberry keeping to being a expert pruner and it's all thanks to you being such a good teacher so thank you for your wonderful videos. Also I would be interested to know how you feed your blackberries and how often.
I appreciate your details of everything. You have really helped me! God Bless 😊
Very through and easily understood. Thanks
Hello from Australia! Can you please do a video on raspberries. Thank you so much for educating us. It makes sense and is easier to control for us, home gardeners. My blackberries (Waldo thornless, Australian) since 2018 produce so much fruit but it grows too many canes from the base - even when I have them in 60cm large pots. Pots are easy to control our native birds and possums, as they were eating them in the garden! I also noticed they need full sun 6 hours spring & summer to do well. I will try this system in my garden and wire along the garden fence.
Thank you for doing this!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Also, some tips on “training” ramblers and antique roses when y’all have time … and how they look in your nursery would be great 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤩🤩🤩
My blackberries were planted in 2020 and I used this system on them last year. Got some great success! Thanks for this video and explaining how long to let the side branches grow. I think I cut mine a little too early and didn't let them reach the neighboring tall cane. Are you able to use this system with raspberries? Thanks for these videos!
I am new so I have seen part 4 but I need to see part 1 2 @3
I’m trying to learn how to manage my black berries. Thanks for all the great info.
Thanks for making more videos. Your knowledge is impeccable..
I grow Triple Crown, will the method you so competently demonstrated with Kiowa work on my plants also?
Again great information. Thank you.
This system is so organized. I’m from the Northwest and the way blackberry’s grow it’s wild to me, seeing them receive so much care and grow so organized. Last year I purchased Navaho blackberry that grows upright. Do you have a recommended pruning technique for this blackberry?
I have a young navaho as well and wondering if this system will work on it.
Hola desde Chile saludos.Navajo es sin espinas?
Thank you very much.
I have some questions: How far apart are your plants from each other? How close can they be from each other in a tight location? I missed that part when watching the videos. Thank you!
Thanks! What would be the easiest way on telling the plants are thirsty?
Thank you! What wonderful and precise details, about growing these blackberries! Do you happen to have printed instructions?
Thank you for all of your videos. They are very well done! Would the TPUPS system you demonstrate also work in more northern climates ( such as Canada)? Perhaps only with changes in the timing of when the pruning cuts are made? Thank you!
Could you explain how you suppressed growth
THAK YOU DR.Arlie!! 👌👌👏👏👍👍
So, we remove suckers, kinda like a tomato…..and remove lower leaves like a tomato? How far apart are the plants in the row? The posts?
Then u are making them grow like an apple tree (espalier……4 main limbs)?
The pruning of old floricanes is the main ‘key’?
How about making a video for those who want to start growing blackberries!
I live in zone 7b and have around a 50 foot row of thornless blackberries. As usual I have many canes that have sprouted in my walkway. When would you recommend that I transplant these canes into another row?
Thank you for this information. I needed to learn this because I am trying to grow boysenberry plants and have had them go crazy. Now I know what to do. Really appreciated. Just curious, what is growing on the arched trellises in the background? Thanks again.
I think the arches are not trellises but supports for transient greenhouses, the translucent plastic covers are put on for early spring and taken off with summer.
Great videos! Will this system work for Red Raspberries?
Can you do 3? Which direction do you run your rows, NS or EW?
I posted, a previous message, but there at 12 minutes into the video he states the row is running south. So N to S apparently
Do you use a bubbler system or soaker system and how many GPM?
Hi what’s your spacing between plant?
Please tell me what is your best defense against Japanese Beatles. Thank you
Liquid Sevin and get a couple of Japanese Beetle traps, they work great
I agree Japanese bettle traps work great. Get a full trap.then you can by just bags and tablets to reuse every year
What is your spacing between plants?
4.5 feet is what Dr Powell said in a previous video.
I HAVE A QUESTION FOR ANYONE WHO CAN ANSWER.WHAT LENGTH DO YOU ALLOW THE LATERAL BRANCHES RUNNING THE TRELLIS TO GROW AND WHEN TO MAKE THE LAST HEADING CUT ON THEM.(BEFORE FROST?)(AFTER FROST?) THANKS
That’s my question as well. I put in 18 plants new this year and have been following this system. The side shoots have reached a bit beyond the plants on either side, the tips were then cut. Now the side shoots range 3-5 ft long going into the first frost within the next month.
Based on a lot of googling, in late winter I’m going to try cutting the laterals to 2ft on a third of the plants and 4ft on another third and leave the last plants untouched. We’ll see how it goes. :)
2/3 of the plants are triple crown, 1/3 are prime ark freedom, just to throw in another variable.
I made an executive decision on my ignorance and stopped mine at 4 ft ,and then the side shoots reached 2 ft or better and I trimmed them back to about 15 inches.I don't have a clue whether that was ideal or not but with the long shoots it was causing the whole vine to twist on the trellis when the wind blew hard, so for safety I thought to cut them back would stiffen things up.Thanks and best of luck to ya on your crop.@@halomaster0007
@@halomaster0007 please update when you can! How far apart did you plant them? That's one of my main questions, it looks like Dr. Arley planted his maybe 6 ft apart I'm guessing? But I don't think he says anywhere in his videos. In a comment on this video someone says they heard him say 4.5 ft in an earlier video, however, I've listened to the earlier videos pretty carefully and I haven't heard that, not saying he's wrong, just not saying I haven't been able to confirm it. And visually, the height of the metal posts being 5 ft, compared to the distance for the canes, it again looks to me closer to 6 ft.
@@sjonuff I went with 4.5ft between each plant. Seems like plenty of space. Of the new primocanes growing this year (1st year after planting), the furthest away from the center of a crown is about 1.5ft. They’re growing like weeds even though we had -12F a few times over winter. 2 of the 18 first year vines did die, but their crowns survived and are growing well.
@@halomaster0007 thank you. I think you're on the right track! I did find the video in which Dr Powell does say that he initially planted them 3 ft apart, but in the most recent years he plants them at 4.5 feet apart. I'm thinking I'm just going to plant at 5 feet to make the math on even posts on my property work out easily.
This is tremendously interesting to me....but I want to admit something...possibly this is an irrational thought process...and possibly I need to see a psychiatrist....but I have great difficuly in coming to grips with pruning an entirely healthy green shoot.....some people have no problem....but deep inside me....I feel like the little blackberry plant and the shoot has tried so very hard and it has used all its effort to grow...then snip, I have ended all its effort....I feel like I am cutting off somebody's arm or leg....so this is a secret admission of remorse....is it normal for a grown 66-year-old man who is trying to learn to be a gardener...is it normal to have these secret feelings for a little plant....
Perfectly normal! I have that same affliction. The thought of having thousands of pounds per acre of blackberries might cure me, though.
