PRUNING EVERBEARING RASPBERRIES | The 2 Methods

[@sandralira6091]

Thank you! That was the clearest, most concise explanation of how to prune everbearing raspberries for two crops. I finally understand! :D

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Yay!! I’m so glad to hear this! 😊

[@colemansines9722]

100% agree!!! I’ve wasted so much time trying to find this 11 min information. Thank you for just simply explaining with no hype.

[@laurieebert961]

I have watched a number of videos on trimming back raspberries. This has been the clearest and most informative video I have seen. Ultra thank you!

[@Jane_1776]

I see that I am not the only one to find that this video is the best on pruning everbearing raspberries! Thanks so much for this!!

[@karineliboiron2886]

Best explanation so far on what to cut and what to keep - after seeing 30 plus videos on this. thank you

[@introvertedoutdoorsman2856]

I agree!

[@ryansineni1369]

This is exactly what I needed. Not only explained but the visuals of how and what are on point. Thanks from a first season grower

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Yay! Thank you! 😊 glad it was helpful

[@SylviaBorror]

Finally!! Someone who was clear and concise with steps and inluded the "why". I'll be watching more of your videos :)

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Thank you, kindly!

[@davidgarlinghouse2261]

Great precise video! Thanks!

[@delanaespinoza]

Wow what an informative video! You have my subscription. Thank you! I hope you’ve done a video on blackberries!

[@snsmystic]

Best explanation ever! And I've seen the big YT channels on pruning everbearing raspberris.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Thank you so much! That’s a great compliment. Happy gardening!

[@thiagonastari2560]

You're a natural teacher! This was the best video on how to prune everbearing raspberries, and I've watched many of those. Congratulations and thank you! 🥰

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful!

[@ArielleSharp-l4m]

Your video is far better than all the other ones I watched on KZbin. Thank you!

[@stevelew47]

Good stuff. I learned more on this video than other ones. You are great. Thanks!!

[@anitagriffin2472]

First time grower. I planted first raspberry in May. I had Fall raspberries up through December 31st. Today I plan to prune the top section to prepare for a lower cane crop. Southern AL

[@drhappyplants]

awesome, well done. you made it eady to understand and your pruning is a work of art!

[@mylifeonthebeach]

Best explanation ever! Thank You

[@olivesaviary4757]

Very informative, thank you!

[@JamiePaul-q8p]

This is awesome! Found some wild raspberries in our woods and excited to prune them back and get a fall harvest this year and maybe two harvests next year!!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

How neat to find wild raspberries! Hopefully they respond well to some TLC and give you a bumper crop!

[@juliaraglin4042]

Such a great video!!!! Best one I have found on how to prune raspberries. So helpful!

[@sapperssgkelley]

I pruned using your recommendations last winter and I got wonderful results. Thank you!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Great to hear!

[@petergoodwin6824]

Just adding my thanks to all the rest. This is the first time I’ve had a clear understanding of what to do with my raspberry bushes! Well done! 🎉

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Glad it helped!

[@alexandraderry7086]

Thank you so much for this helpful and informative video! I have watched so many videos and I was starting to understand how to do it, but your video just really helped me understand what to do! I like both options, and I am wondering which one we will try. What is the variety of raspberry you have? Thanks in advance.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Hi there! I’m glad this was helpful! I had a mix of Canby, harvest gold and another one I can’t remember but they all got root rot from the wet spring we had. I’m starting over. 😞

[@ChingWenTang]

Definitely the best video I've seen explaining how to prune raspberry plants, thanks 👍

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MariaMarchetti-x2j]

Fabulous! THank you for a clear, concise, well-illustrated and efficient tutorial.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kathyscott4671]

Best YT video I have seen for Raspberries!

[@goducks20101]

"Are you eating dirt???" Doesn't everyone??? Thanks for a clear presentation.

[@skyymangar]

Awesome video! So clear and concise. I completely cut down all of my canes in February. Waiting for new ones to shoot back up. I will experiment with keeping the old canes to fruit again next year based on your video. I’m in New York City climate with limited sun due to close buildings but I still get a decent fall harvest. My young son loves it.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful. It is much easier to just cut them down but I hope you have success with the other method! Sounds like you’re doing true urban gardening. Keep it up! Cheers!

[@flatsville1]

Thnx. Very clear. No nonsense yammering.

[@patrickst-arnaud9814]

Very good video! Well explained and always good amount of "why" that we don't get in most videos.

[@dorciemarsrowjablonski7052]

When pruning in early winter when there are no berries present how can one ID a say yellow raspberry cane from a blackberry cane?

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

That can be tricky. I know that blackberry canes tend to have larger thorns and are less straight and stiff.

[@valeriesavage5660]

Thank you so much! I've been struggling with growing raspberries and was so confused by other videos on pruning. Your video was so easy to understand!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

You’re welcome! I’m so glad to hear this! 😊

[@isabelladavis1363]

I love THE FIRST WAY a no brainer for me as well as a large harvest…thank you so much for making my life easier…I’m in transition of retirement and I may eventually do the second method once I get settled I. …thank you so much for the best video I’ve seen to date about pruning raspberries I like the training as well as we live in such a hot humid climate hoping to get a better air flow …and look forward to putting your methods together in my garden…stay blessed

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

I’m glad it was helpful for you! 😊

[@fionahobbs8818]

Great video, thankyou! Watching from Australia

[@annbird13]

Thanks for the video and explanation! Do you know what time of year I would do this in northern Vermont (zone 5)? In January/February everything is covered in snow! Do I do this in November before the snow comes? Thanks so much!

[@44beamish]

Thank you this will make it so much easier to understand everbearing raspberries

[@travis94303]

Well, I’ll say what everyone else is saying. This is by far the best raspberry pruning video I have seen! Great explanation and video footage to clearly explain everything.

[@abritelight]

likewise here to say this is the best video on the internet about pruning everbearing raspberries- thank you!! i finally feel informed and confident! ✨🙏🏼✨

[@ellenfales4685]

This was just wonderful, so clear, easy to understand. And I love the extras in the video- your son and dog!!

[@brucemorrow8573]

Really clear instructions and charming! Thanks for the help.

[@JoelRayman]

I'm starting from scratch. I moved into a new home 3 years ago and have an out of control patch that will blossom but no fruit. Any comments are welcome

[@juliefuller3552]

Can you tell me what kind of of wire you are using and where I can buy it ? I really learned from your video, thank you. Julie

[@johnhugel1945]

Well done! A very clear explanation video for pruning everbearing raspberries. I haven't had the guts to cut mine all down to the ground yet as I'm reluctant to miss out on the early summer harvest portion.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful! I am thinking next year I may just prune them all with the second method because I much prefer two crops myself. But it’s nice to know both options! Happy gardening!

[@joyfox4871]

Great instructions. Very thorough and detailed. Thank you.

[@rmartinie]

Spot on, nicely done 👍🏻Thanks so much 😊

[@AkadiLife]

I am new to raspberries and was super excited when my everbearing Raspberries were heavy with flower and the start of berries but the heavy frost did not allow for the Fall harvest to occur due to the bad timing with a late ripening. Any suggestions to avoid losing the fall harvest due to frost?

[@ericashugart8859]

Finally! Thank you so much! I’ve been looking for a thorough and clear explanation of this for a long time.

[@tvoneng]

I liked the video and will try to use your lessons. I was wondering if you mulch and fertilize?

[@jenjfranklin]

Thank you for this! Such a great explanation so I now understand what to do each year.

[@introvertedoutdoorsman2856]

This by far is the best video and explanation of raspberry prep I have seen so far! Thank you!

[@madelinemalmgren3507]

Now I know why I only got fall crop! Thanks for the info and my son ate dirt too, he turned out great.

[@amyostergren3226]

Great information. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@YelloLibra83]

Very good explanation and detailed. Thank you so much.

[@allysongross8827]

Really clear and helpful! Thank you!

[@megannippert9015]

Yeah! Finally I figured out my 'inherited' patch. I never knew how manage it. It was my fault as I would dig up my neighbors' runners, transplant and failed to find out what I was getting.Thank you, this is so clear. It is half and half summer/ever-bearing. I have 3 patches and will mow down 2 of them and enjoy summer berries on the other.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Glad I could help! Sounds like you have a great plan!

[@trudymautz4388]

Great video, but I have a question. I have just finished my spring harvest and one of my patches seems quite full, can you prune now, and thin out before the fall harvest? They seem very thick, I was thinking air flow is important?

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

I know of some people who prune in the late summer. You can try it and see what happens. I don’t think it will hurt the raspberries. Creating more airflow is important

[@aUNVACCINATED]

You’re losing a crop from cutting everything down.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Yes, you lose the spring crop but get a larger fall crop

[@coconut569]

My raspberry vines has not produced anything but vines. Help!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Baffling. Is it the first year for them?

[@elsmooth12]

My goodness, a MASSIVE thumbs up for this video! Your explanations were clear, concise, and so well presented...can't thank you enough for the information! Late March 2022 I popped in 3 bare root Heritage raspberry plants (1 didn't make it), and after observing last year's growth of the new primocanes (no fruit, unfortunately, but hopefully that just means they were spending their energy building a strong root system) I was hoping to better understand what was going to happen this season. Thanks to you, now I do! Keep up the incredible work!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

That’s wonderful! Thank you for these kind words. I’m glad it was helpful for you. Best of luck with your raspberries!

[@mgguygardening]

Great video, very concise and informative. I have a few everbearing raspberry plants that I planted a couple of years ago and kind of ignored last year....definitely going to get out and look at pruning them for a better harvest this year.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

I’m glad this was helpful! It helps to see it demonstrated for sure. Good luck!

thanks, i have a fall gold and a caroline in their 2nd year and first year i thought they died. im going to prune for fall harvest after this year

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Glad this was helpful! I love my fall gold raspberries!

[@sharonpayne8187]

what time of year do you cut all back fall or spring ?

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

I do it in late winter or early spring. I know some who do it in the fall but I prefer early spring

[@joerobuccio7633]

What variety are your raspberries? Great video!!

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

I have a mix: canby, harvest gold and another I can’t remember

[@wobblejuice]

Are your raspberries thornless? What type are they?

[@maureen3621]

I have raspberries growing at home that are thornless but the ones that were already on my allotment plot are very thorny. The thorny ones seem to produce more raspberries but the taste is still the same. Have the thornless ones been bred that way?

[@brianseybert2189]

Just found your channel and subscribed. Third year of everbearing raspberries. First year planted in mid June had some berries in the fall, last year had a some in spring(did not prune) and a huge crop in the fall. Mid march in zone 5 and I need to trim up my berries. Looked at other videos on this subject and most were completely confusing. Your video was just what I was looking for, plus nice humor "are you eating dirt?" love it. Know, I think I know what I am doing? My trellising last year was terrible, I used twine off of a couple T-Posts at either end of the bed. I had canes all over the place, a real mess. We have those lovely Japanese beetles here and I had to cover with netting, on occasion I would have to let a bird out. I will be setting up a trellis system like yours when the soil thaws. but for now I will enjoy trimming. Need to get out of the grow room. Thanks again, really appreciate your expertise. I have a video on KZbin of my messy raspberries from last Aug. " Brian Seybert Garden Tour " if you are interested.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Hi Brian! I’m so happy you found this helpful! It took me a few years to figure out my system and now I’m really happy with it so I hope you’ll have just as much success with it as I have. I enjoyed your garden tour video! Very impressive garden! Cheers

[@brianseybert2189]

@@OurSanctuaryGarden Quick question? When I pruned the floricanes I noticed quite a few lateral branches that had buds below the last falls crop. I trimmed off the part of the laterals that produced last year and left the laterals on the main cane. Question is, should I completely trim off these lateral branches? My soil is still frozen so I have to wait to install my new trellis system (like yours). I was going to see how these laterals would fit when I wired up the floricanes. I'm thinking for air flow purposes it might just be better to eliminate the laterals all together. I did notice all of your canes did not have any lateral branches. Thanks for taking a look at my garden video. Making a lot of changes this year, enjoy experimenting and trying to make things a bit better each year.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

@@brianseybert2189 hmmm... are you sure they're everbearing? Maybe they're summer/june bearing. I think what you did is fine, I wouldn't worry about pruning the laterals. Just thin out your row enough to allow proper airflow. See what your raspberries do this year and you can always modify next pruning season.

[@brianseybert2189]

@@OurSanctuaryGarden For sure they are everbearing. I will do as you suggest and prune accordingly for airflow. Appreciate you responding. Thank You, and have a wonderful growing season!

[@JS-jl1yj]

I used to have a lot of Japanese beetles on my raspberries too. They were mating right at the harvest time. I felt pretty gross when they crawled on my fingers as I picked the raspberries. About 5 years ago, I read a lot of information about them and learned that they lay eggs in the grass. I started applying beneficial nematodes to my lawn to kill their grubs. You can buy them at a better garden centres or at amazon. If you carefully follow the instructions on the package, you will greatly reduce the population of the Japanese beetles on your raspberries and your lawn will look a lot healthier too. I have been applying them in the spring and also at the end of summer.

[@OurSanctuaryGarden]

Hi Steve, sorry for the late response, your comment got lost in my email. It sounds like it's following the pattern maybe just more rapidly. It may be the variety of raspberry you have. Is it summer bearing by chance? Either way, it's nice to have it fruiting so well for you!
