One thing with the DUAL FUEL is the propane doesn't have ANY lubricants in it. The cylinder is going to wear out FASTER with LP. Use your LP only as a backup. For your problem, sounds like you need a DIFFERENT LP provider, one who might supply a HIGHER pressured regulator!!??

I have freedom canes and in august the berries were red and then suddenly they looked awful and shriveled up. I was told that fruit flies may have laid their eggs on the berries and gave rise to larval worms which attracted birds which ate them up. Did this ever happen to you? What should I do?
@BIGALTX2 сағат бұрын
I do have occasion that my berries will look like that. They will be nice, red berries, and then wind up shriveling up. It doesn’t happen to the whole entire crop for me, but it does happen on occasion. Not really sure what that might be though. I’ve never heard the “flies laying eggs on them” theory before… so not sure.

You could go ahead and prune them now at four or 5 feet. You might get a few laterals, but we are beginning to wind the season down. Whatever you have this year will be what produces next year. The canes that go through the winter will not grow many laterals early next year.

I have a hard time pruning at all, because my Prime Ark in 2 Earthboxes are nearly continually blooming and producing blackberries. I have big spring and summer crops and in between there are a few berries nearly all the time. I've been able to pick about 5 -10 per day for the last two months. I'm in San Diego and use Lilly Miller 16-16-16 annually, Hoss 20-20-20 and Microboost a few times per year (when I think about it).

Ouch… That does not sound good. To answer your question, yes, new canes should have come up already. Sounds like the plants have died, but don’t give up just yet. I would investigate what the problem might be before you replant. If they are planted in the ground, it could be gophers, or disease… or chemicals like herbicides.

Aren’t the canes that grew this summer and fall, the ones that will produce next year? Wouldn’t you only prune back the canes that produced this year?

Yes, but those canes should already be dead by now. Ideally, they would’ve already been pruned out, (although I am a little slack in doing that this year). What I was addressing was viable canes that people have told me they were going to prune down to the ground in the fall or winter.
@keyphabenyisrael32192 күн бұрын
Even though I knew better since I've been growing black raspberries for years, & tipping the canes, I neglected to tip my black raspberry canes, and they must be over 20ft long now LOL I got 2 thornless blackberry canes (black satin & chester) from Home Depot that were on sale, & at one point I thought were going to die early in the season from neglect, I'd forgotten I bought them! Thankfully they both came back really strong after I transplanted them into buckets. The canes I meant to top grew so long I felt I may as well just leave them all as is to see what I end up with next season. A few have root tipped already so I will be separating them to have more plants this week. Zone 6A is a little too cold for those prime ark varieties unfortunately.

I’ve heard of commercial growers doing that also. Sometimes, I think it’s a shortage of pickers at certain seasons of the year. I just don’t know why any backyard grower would want to do this.
