[@pitrinurmayasari6970]

What an inspiring grandpa.thank u,next episode

[@MarlinFabos]

By far the best and easiest to understand with good detail . Now I know what to do . All others I've seen left me too many questions. Don't waste your time watching others. 01:55

[@joycehancock3063]

I agree, he’s very good

[@MarlinFabos]

Going to try the same on my Raspberry's

[@Allsteadynow]

I love his instructions. They are better without the competing music though.

[@amomto4]

I agree, the music is distracting.

[@myownself7484]

I've watched your videos over and over- Really great toght information! I'm trying this system with Kiowa blackberries in eastern Ohio- Not sure how much the dates will change from your video (as I am in zone 6) fingers crossed and paying attention- Thanks SO much! If my father was still around I could have asked him for help- but since I can't- your videos are teaching me- Thanks again! Perfect videos!

[@myownself7484]

Oh, and I'm also trying black raspberries, and thornless blackberries, alongside the Kiowa- using your system of Trellising. No point in having all my berries in one basket- (since there seems to be No information Anywhere, about growing Kiowa in zone 6 Ohio- even though they say even zone 5 isn't too cold- (Many online reviews say zone 5 is too cold) (Couldn't find any reviews about Ohio) Wish me luck! I'll be watching for any other videos (Maybe spraying for pests or disease- Or would heavier mulching help against Ohio winters, or will it just suffocate my roots? Bird and deer deterrents- Or any other blackberry topics would be greatly appreciated! I'm hoping to supplement our small family income if this works out- And it's fabulous- Like edible bonsai- Super cool technique!

What an inspiring and insightful demonstration. Thank you so much.

[@rogerbeck5704]

I see know what I need to be doing to my plants....thank you so much!

[@terridunning5439]

I so love seeing they videos updated. Thank you very much for posting.

[@RoyatAvalonFarms]

These are great tips for trellising. Thanks.

[@kelsey5495]

This is fantastic!!! So excited for new videos!!! Keep them coming please!

[@Throughphoenix]

Thanks once again.

[@everlenamurry2776]

Thank you so much, you are the best 😊

[@ilovevideostories]

Thank you! Such great wisdom and experience! Thank you for sharing it with us!

[@stephenmacedo8796]

Love your videos. Great info

[@thanyab.3722]

Thank you for your video

[@With.Love.Chris.]

Beautiful ❤

[@lianagilbert61]

it looks like your plants are about 6ft apart. do you remove any sprouts that come up close to the grass? mine seem to tunnel under the ground and come up in random places.

[@StewartFarmApiary]

Great video. Thank you

[@Adrian-cw8yu]

Thanks for the tips

[@IAMGiftbearer]

Have you got a demonstration of how to put up the trellis?

[@janstaffordclark6437]

Great info! thank you!

[@markhumphrey8894]

Great video. I wish I could trellis our blackberries but they are so wild in the orchard that I have just pruned them. They are erect thorny type. No idea the species given the birds are the provider to the orchard. My question is: Do the Floricanes flower all at once. These are once a year fruiting. Primocane then Floricane. A lot of the laterals do not have flowers and I was wondering what to do with them. Are they just robbing the nutrients from the flowered branches? I did the Primocane trimming to 4 feet and laterals to 12 inches this past winter. They are leafing like crazy now. The new Primocanes are being head topped now to stop the apical growth, but I just don't know what to do with the floricances. The flowers started here in central NY about 10 days ago. Why do you leave any leaves on the Floricane that are not being trained? Aren't the nutrients coming from the roots. Or do you need the old leaves for photosynthesis during fruit formation? Can not get any answers on what to do with Floricane. Primocane information is everywhere and I have a handle on that. Been 30 yrs since biology class. Thanks for any help.

[@tomhollingsworth9328]

I started mine this year and they are doing good, should I prune them this July?

[@deanvanlaarhoven1413]

Please tell me what the purpose of the land is in between each row. It looks like 3to 4 ft of dead space grass stealing water and nutrients. Why are these mulched rows not right next to each other?

[@deanvanlaarhoven1413]

Thank you very much.

[@gregleach5833]

Probably for tractor or some other vehicle that can transport a large tank sprayer for fungicide , fertilizer , insecticide or workers to load full crates of blackberries on to . All U- pick places also have this configuration to allow people room to pick bit mostly for tractors etc .

[@jamesjustice859]

I'm not sure if the video covers this because I'm asking the question before I watch the second video. How long are the sticks and what is the white flag for on each one of your posts?

[@JamesMinichini]

Is galvanized steel wire good to use ?

[@kansasgardener5844]

I'm not sure why you only keep 2 canes? I keep 4 to 6 canes and I think your missing out on alot of berries doing it this way. Am I missing something here?

[@HWoodCreations]

Would this method be acceptable for Triple Crown Blackberries?

[@chugginbeers]

Does this work with boysenberries?

[@krisbaker9427]

Yes

[@mimibergerac7792]

Is sunburn on fruits only a question of watering, or would Rca rotating cross arm system be better in dry, strong sun areas (sw France) thank you!

[@yerneedsry]

Does it the same as grapes..

[@charlesherrington63]

Preciate ya. Just starting my first batch of Ouachita Thornley. Needed a little teachin..good day

[@karendiggs3052]

Does this type of pruning apply to Thor less blackberries also?

[@petalsfromthepast]

Yes it does

[@AaronBrand]

I prune blackberries with a shovel!

[@paintersson]

I am just getting started on blackberries. I planted four upright types this year. So are they considered two year plants or one year plants? How do I get them ready to bare fruit. Thatch you

[@estebancarrasco8086]

Hola ojalá me entiendas las moras dan en cañas del año anterior primero crecen en el año y el próximo dan

[@whatsupwithsteve]

Thank you so much for sharing your expert knowledge. We had no idea of trellising and pruning blackberries like this and we are very excited to plant our bushes this year and use your method. Also, can this same method be used for other berries such as boysenberries and raspberries? Thanks again..:)

[@peccantis]

Not them but the other Rubus berry plants have the same two-year rhythm, strong drive to form long canes, and a strong vigour trade-off. So yeah, unless the variety has specific guidelines to follow, this method ought to work for pretty much any Rubus.

[@ceeebeee2294]

This is so helpful! @petatsfromthepast would this work for raspberries as well?

[@pollyester6639]

What are those posts called and what size are they

[@lelawoodby4433]

T-posts, 8 ft long. You can find them at farm / big box stores.

[@articmars1]

Those plants don't look like they produce very much. Is their production any good with them just being one branch?

[@elainevang9114]

I was thinking the same thing🤷‍♀️

[@jeffkimble8857]

He has said he gets 8-12lbs per plant on average.

[@brwhite4135]

What variety did you say? Cowen?

[@heavymechanic2]

Kiowa Blackberry plants if you like thorns, other varieties train in the same way.

[@jamesjustice859]

What do you do to manage the grass that grows between your grass patch and your pine mulch??

[@anthonykalisz6664]

Someone commented the music was distracting while I found it conducive to immersment.

[@ShalomShalom-d5c]

Great vids, music is not necessary...
