I had to dig up my raised bed and put down some corrugated iron on the bottom before filling it back up. An adjacent tree roots were growing into the bed stealing all the nutrients. Doing much better now. I love the raised garden bed idea by the way. I might try it myself down here in South Hobart!
Love your work Sir. I am also new to growing raspberries and have already prepared a bed for them, other wise I would have tried this method. However, your idea of using corrugated iron as a raised garden bed is BRILLIANT, so easy even I could do it. I aim to use this process for other food pants. Keep doing what you are doing. Yours truly, Fiona 😄
Just make sure that with most summer fruiting varieties you need to make sure you know which cains are old and which are new because they fruit on the Cain in the following season
Hello sir! I love your RUclips videos. Beautiful garden bed idea! I have a few raspberries grown in pot about 7 months, they are growing so fast in height nearly 2 meters tall but don’t have any flowers yet. Do l need to trim them?
Thank you for the helpful video. I am new to growing raspberries - I just want to check, will you not get fruit off those canes until the next year? (None the year planted?)
I love your container building method!
Thank you! 😊
Great Idea 👍 Well informed and smart build..
Love your kids so enthusiastic about the garden.
Many small hands make light work good to know where their fruit comes from 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Its a beautiful garden.just awesome.
WOW, metal bed origami……… THAT IS SO CLEVER. Impressive 👌👌🥬🧅🥦🌶
“Really tasty!? That’s good!” Haha those kids are so cute. Great info! Very informative.
Using the cement mixer was a great idea!

Yes, it would be useful in you situation too. Outside invaders can be as big a problem as escapees!
Thank you. I'd been thinking that raspberries need self-contained growing conditions. This video confirms it.
Living the dream man. Beautiful garden.
thought about going to live in Tassie , but have friends on the mainland and the cost to go with car is bloody expensive.Love your show
This is what I needed to see I have a food forest and they take over everything thank you.
Awesome vlog 🥳 I Love how you use tin to create a planter box 🤩 I completely agree that the raspberry runners go everywhere 😖
Say it grandpa, "10 hundred". Haha
Great garden space you've got! Loved your simple raised bed design.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
What a great idea! I have raspberries that is growing everywhere and was wondering how i can stop that. Greetings from Port Elizabeth, South Africa
Loved your video and realised we walked together at the March in Launceston!😀
Thank you. Was good to make contact.
@@homesteading how many gallons of soil does the bed hold?
So happy to have found you🥳we came to Tassie 6 years ago and am still learning how to garden in this zone. Look forward to your future work 🙏
Welcome aboard!
Very informative! Thanks for sharing :-)
I just saw this today. Loved how you built the planter box sire!

Absolutely, summer fruiting varieties are pruned differently to autumn fruiting ones.
I knew I should've kept those old tin sheets.
Great video Mate. Appreciate you sharing 🙌🤜
Brilliant tutorial! Thank you. 🤩
Very informative, and let me tell you how adorable are your little helpers: very tasty!it put a smile in my 💜 hugs to you all

Thankyou so much

First year crop will be small as very few mature canes. They tend to grow one year, fruit the next, then die.
@@homesteading oh what a shame I was hoping for lots this year. Thank you so much for your help
I wish I had neighbours who annoyed me with free raspberry producing bushes!
