I'm about to move, and my neighbor who has raspberries has offered to give me some cuttings to take with me. I'm in the northeast, so it's getting chilly and we're moving to a house where I haven't had the chance to really map out where I want to plant everything.
I'm thinking of putting the cuttings in pots and just keeping them either indoors or in a plastic greenhouse over the winter, then planting them in the spring. Would it be better to do this, or to plant them in what seems to be the best place in the yard now, even though I may end up moving them? Thanks for any thoughts!
These are first year canes on my second year plant. The two year old canes are fruiting now. I've pruned the first year canes to ~4' and I've noticed these "suckers" popping up, which didn't happen with my plant the first year.
I know with tomatoes these are pruned, but can't seem to find guidance on raspberries outside of pruning the main canes.
Any guidance would be appreciated, thanks!
I have a nice 30'x30' black cap raspberry patch growing on the septic mound at my new house. I made lots of jam, froze some raspberries for pies, canned whole berries in light syrup, and ate a bunch while picking.
After going on vacation, I found many over-ripe berries when I returned. I squished some with a fork and dried them out on paper towels. I had to keep crumbling them up as they dried. I looked online, and couldn't find when the best time to plant raspberry seeds is.
The remaining berries, I squished carefully and put in a pickle jar in the fridge until I could figure out what to do with them. I was considering tilling up a new area and spreading these seeds out. Did I make a mistake putting them in the fridge if I am going to sew them while it is hot? Not sure if raspberry seeds need a cold cycle before germinating. Worried if I plant them now that the seeds will germinate, but not get established enough before winter. Thoughts on what I should do with this jar of seeds and pulp?
So I’m looking for Willamette, Honey Queen, and Carolina and I know this is a terrible time to transplant but I’m looking to purchase for fall shipping and I’ve been to over 20 sites and none of them even offer them for purchase-fall shipping.
I just moved into a house in Michigan and I want to start growing golden raspberries. Is it too late to start this year? Should I wait til spring? Also, do they grow better in raised beds or can I just plant them from the ground? I am starting from scratch and don't know where to start. I plan to start w small plants. Thanks!
My wife got me one of those starter canes from the grocery store, “guaranteed to grow”, as a bday gift. I planted it maybe May 20th or so.
When I pulled it out of the package by the cane like an idiot, it came right out and separated from the soil still in there somehow. Ive since realized I should’ve soaked the roots in water as well.
Anyways, I planted it and it gets water, but it still just looks like I planted a stick in the ground. No green leaves sprouting. However, its still a healthy looking brown, from what I understand dead canes turn white or grey.
Wondering if anyone can tell me to keep waiting or stop wasting my time and garden space?

some people say raspberries aren't berries, they are wrong, they are berries, we just so happen to eat the whole group

This sub looks dead af but maybe someone's still alive. Maybe you can point me to a better sub?
The gardening sub is quite big. I still like it, but most of the stuff on there would die where I live. There was a post of a lemon tree growing outside. OUTSIDE! Wth...
So I'm looking for more specific subs. My MIL gave me some raspberries. She recently moved and I thought I was pulling them out for her, but she's like they're for you!
I kept them on the porch in a Tupperware for a few days until I could get them into the ground at our new place. My MIL said they'd be fine like that and are super hardy, but when I looked online most of its problems seem to come from drainage issues. So keeping them in a tub of water doesn't seem like a good idea.
It also snowed the other day. They weren't looking so hot when I put them in the ground. It will be a few weeks until I see them again. Hopefully they'll green up and have more leaves.
Raspberries!!!
