I just won the lottery on free mulch using it to transplant about a hundred black raspberry plants. My absolute favorite! Mine look like crap compared to yours i hope they grow bigger under a managed bed. Btw my chickens and turkeys are alway up in my business too. God they made gardening so much funner.
I planted some black raspberry plants this Spring just before the drought started. It took a while but they are finally growing well. Thanks for posting these very informative videos on how to manage these plants. Finding your channel has been very timely for me. I’m in my early seventies now but when I was a child I often helped my grandmother gather wild berries on many kinds here in upstate New York. As a reward I would get to feast on her home baked pies and jams and jellies. I grew up on a small dairy farm and we supplied my grandparents with the raw milk from our Holstein herd. Gram would often separate some of the cream from the jugs so we could put some on the warm pies she would serve. Thanks again Rick
I'm trying this because we usually find them wild but last year was dry and we didn't get any... We make jelly out of them and man is it the best on buttery biscuits, PB&J sandwiches etc etc.... Thank you for the tips... We aren't too far from you ( eastern shore of Maryland)
Well done, thanks for the advice! I have a short row of wild black raspberries and i am adding two new varieties; New Logan and Cumberland. In Wisconsin we call them blackcaps and they are an important ingredient in my cherry wine!
@@joshholschuh1847 Thorned, and thats fine with me. Had to move, managed to bring a small patch of them with me though! Now they are part of a living plant wall Im growing for privacy.
I transplanted some very large first year black raspberry canes mid summer. They look a bit droopy and the tips shriveled up after a few days. Are they goners?
I don’t live where I can plant any so forage for these in central PA. Last year I found next to none. I’m worried that there hasn’t been enough rain for this year.
I planted mine in a foot of mulch making sure there was plenty of good soil around the roots. I add chucks of old firewood on top which helps on these dry times. Stone crop varieties I planted last year are doing well with only rain and I’m in the SCPA
We used to go pick raspberries all the time on back roads in Ohio but cant find them anymore the state or county either mow them or spray along the roads and now dont find very many
A friend just dug up a bunch of plants and gave them to me to plant, and they are bare rooted. (11 JULY!) I know it's the wrong time of year to transplant. They range from about 2 to 4 feet tall. I assume I should cut them back before planting? How far? Should I just leave one or two sets of leaves? Right now they're soaking in a bucket of water. Advice please
Hello Jenny Good question. This is just my opinion, in similar situation I'd cut them down to about 2ft making sure that there are at least 3 - 4 good size leaves on the stem and place them into a bucket of water - just like what you've done. Next, I'd plant them the next day. I'd dig a fairly large hole and mix compost with natural soil to give a plant their best chance at success. Next would be to mulch it and keep it moist throughout the season. They should do well. The faster they are planted - the bigger the chance of them surviving. They do take a bit of time to establish. With proper care in about 2 - 3 years you'll have a good harvest! Good luck and thanks for watching our videos!
@@YouCanToday They are not doing well, but I managed to buy two Jewel plants at a nursery (in one-gallon pots). They are older plants because some canes have berries and some canes are new, bare canes for next year's fruit. Should I cut the fruiting canes to the ground now? Should I cut the new canes back to 3 or 4 leaves as you suggested above for bare-rooted plants? Won't that make the new canes branch? Or should I just leave the new canes alone?
Can I plant black raspberry near blackberry? I read somewhere to not plant black raspberry near red raspberry due to aphids not sure if that's true or not
I do woodworking and end up with tons of sawdust. Was told that I shouldn't put it on the berry beds because it will raise the PH and the soil won't be acidic enough. I'm in NE Ohio, my berries were transplanted summer of '22 and doing fairly decent, but some are slow going. Composted with hummus/manure and some additive for acid loving plants. Any other tips or is it just a waiting game? Thanks. :)
Actually, sawdust and woodchips make the soil more acidic and that's what raspberries love. Manure isnt the most ideal for raspberries. It tends to burn their roots.
@YouCanToday I'll bear that in mind. Was looking into chicken fertilizer "Coop Poop". About half of my 17 plants seem to have multiple primo canes popping up, while he other half do not. Though, some of the healthiest looking plants are ones that don't have any new canes yet. 🤷♂️ Lol

Oh my goodness the chickens are so adorable!!!! Great video thanks.

Black Raspberries are super easy and fun to grow! Good Luck!
Well done, thanks for the advice! I have a short row of wild black raspberries and i am adding two new varieties; New Logan and Cumberland. In Wisconsin we call them blackcaps and they are an important ingredient in my cherry wine!
That's really cool!
I found some in my yard and i want to start gardening them fully
Awesome. Good luck with them. If you have a wild variety, they are a bit more difficult to cultivate though.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for watching :)
Ive got wild black raspberries in the woods beside my house, im trying to tip root some of them right now!
Cool! Good luck.
Trying lol. Are they thorned or thornless? They're gonna spread like wildfire

Tip layering helps a ton to thicken the hedge
More good info thanx.
I was wondering if spotted lantern flies are a problem for you? They have been in South Jersey for 3 years now.
oh my! we have seen a few here and there. thankfully not a problem here....yet...
Last year we had a massive invasion of those things. I’ve seen one this year. Knock on wood.

I wouldn't think so. Give them plenty water and they should bounce back by end August/beginning September
I have a small patch of black raspberries and need to know how & when can I dig up & transplant.
Autumn is a good time for that.
I don’t live where I can plant any so forage for these in central PA. Last year I found next to none. I’m worried that there hasn’t been enough rain for this year.
it has been very dry

हैलो दोस्त कैसे हैं
Much has changed since I posted that. I found 3 places that were loaded. I picked about 32 cups. Woo hoo!

In my experience black rasberries and blackberries do well in neighbouring beds.
They do better in partial sun here in 6B
Yes, each location is different. I guess because we have drip irrigation they do well here in our yard in full sun.
Thanks
Thanks for watching our videos!
Thank you. Did you plant that growth coming out of the roots, or did you leave it out of the soil?
Cute children with the feather doo. 😅
YOU CAN GAME 😄
What variety are you selling ?
Jewel
im in PA near York, and planted a Bristol and a Cumberland, so i am hoping to have some to compare...
Nice! Good luck!
York here as well, but I live in a townhouse and the HOA dug up mine. “Because they’ll spread.” Duh!
TONGTHER TO BE AWARE
Can't understand you with the background music I fail to see why it's so needed in utube land...
You're music about covers up your voice. Hard to hear at times.
thanks for the feed back. I'll take note of that
