Another Raspberry Question

« on: February 27, 2012, 22:14 »

I planted some new autumn raspberry canes last November. Should I cut the one stem of each plant down to the ground?

One stem per plant won't make much difference to how they perform, and at least they will mark where you have planted them.

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

as they are so new, and may not have many shoots at ground level - i'd cut them about 6/8 inches above ground to make sure you get a few new stems that fruit this year.
