Raspberry Patch
Eight small plants were given to me about 7 years ago, dug from another garden, and planted in the Spring. The patch is mulched heavily and kept watered during the Summer. The production is almost astonishing starting in September until a heavy frost arrives. The canes are cut to ground level before the snow arrives. This means one cropping is obtained in the late Fall of the following year.
http://www.durgan.org/URL/?ZEZQE 2 October 2012 Raspberry Picked 22 Ounces. The little raspberry patch is still producing. Twenty two ounces picked today. This is probably the end of the season except for a few isolated berries before the frost arrives. http://www.durgan.org/URL/?YSDTG 30 September 2012 Raspberry Picked today. Total from this patch is about 13 pounds. Two pounds 14 pounces or 46 ounces. http://www.durgan.org/URL/?QGYEV 23 September 2012 Raspberry. Raspberries picked on 26,31 August. 2,13,15, 20, 23 September. http://www.durgan.org/URL/?KUILB 23 September 2012 Raspberry The small raspberry patch 3 feet by 8 feet has produced about 10 pounds of berries over the last month and more are available if the killing frost holds off.The berries are put through the Champion Juicer to remove the seeds to make a dessert or milk shake.The berries must be processed immediately since mold forms quickly. |
