This was berry informational
Haha! Glad to hear that Kiko 😁❤️
Good job of communicating this info, and breaking it down to the basics. I think I finally understand what the heck I am supposed to do and when! I love blackberries and hope to be growing a ton of them soon.
Blackberries are great! I have a patch semi-erect berries in the corner of my backyard that was here when we moved in. I've ignored it for a few years, but I'm now preparing to clean up the patch, prune, and expand it next summer. This video will be very useful, thank you
Oh my gosh!! With the empowering knowledge you provided me with in this video..I bravely pruned my Navajo thornless berries!! I did watch this video 3 times to get it all! Thank you James and Tuck!!! I am empowered!!!
Thank you, James. Great info. I've been doing it all wrong. I have been cutting mine back like perennial. Live and learn.
Thank you, James! You are my favorite young gardener ~wise and knowledgeable beyond your years!
I am second Liliya I will get black berries thanks James Prigioni and Tuck King of the Hill. go team grow. Growing your own food is like printing money.
I planted my first blackberries and I’m so excited. 🎉
Nice pruning, I have a black satin variety that has grown to an absolute beast. I definitely recommend black satin because unlike others it stays compact in one spot and after years has not spread sending out runner shoots feet away from it's main base so it's much easier to manage.
Hi James
I must say you have a way of explaining things in straightforward uncomplicated manner that I can understand. I have watched several videos about pruning berries and they mainly confused me. After watching this video I can't wait to get out in the orchard and prune my berry vines. By the way, I have watched many of your videos and have found them all to be very helpful.
Jack
Exactly how I feel about this video!
Thanks James! Put blackberries in this summer and wasn't exactly sure how to prune them. Thank you!
Yess!! Good stuff! Glad to hear that my friend ❤️👍
Very educational. Thank you for the content.
@11:11 that comment about extending the edge is what keeps me so excited about my dynamic and changing food forest. I've always seen it as slow motion ripples in a pond with plants. Thank you so much, James for what you do. Your work is fun, funny, and inspiring. You are part of the solution, helping teach the world how to grow food again!
Really like that you are posting more videos again. Have you already started looking into new seeds/plants for the next year, can you show us your process?
Glad to hear that Robert! I’m happy to be posting regularly again too.
Yup!! Got one of my catalogues today 😁😁
I think I could do that, it sounds like fun. Good idea brother 👍
@@jamesprigioni how are they doing now James?
I feel like I’m always so intrigued by how much information there is about gardening, pruning, and taking care of different plants/fruits/veggies! It’s always easy stuff but you definitely need to know what you’re doing if you want to get bigger harvests 🥳🥳
Thanks for the instruction - This spring we transplanted several shoots from a friend's older blackberry vines, from which they also shared several gallons of berries we picked after they had all they wanted. We now have 7-8 good plants with this year's growth spreading. Have begun to set a 4 x 16 ft. fence panel to spread these vines on - for years of good berries in my own yard.
Thanks for the tips on pruning the fruiting laterals of the floricane. It looks like you were right on time pruning the dead floricanes immediately after the plant has exhausted all nutrients in the cane and begins to show dead laterals, rather than in the following spring.
@6:40 You might consider using a taller, Y-shaped trellis system to support more fruit. This could also enable a more versatile canopy management system.
I'm a little cloudy on cane selection. When do you think it is best to select canes?
The shock-and-blur ending may have afffffected my short term memory, but most of the points mmmmmade it in OK.
That came at a perfect time. I have 1 year old blackberry that has 4 meter long spindly wines. Now i know what to do with those. Thanks for all the knowledge!
Perfect Tanel ❤️
Glad the time worked out for you
just wanted to let you know I followed your advise last fall, and now have a bumper crop of blossoms and baby berries. thanks.
I planted 2 throned blackberries last spring. They grew pretty big and got some huge berries from them. I’ll need leather gloves to prune them.
Just moved into a house with a blackberry bush in the backyard! Thanks for the great info! And the Avett Brothers, Bella Donna in the background! :)
James, thank you so much! When I plunked in these blackberries in a year and a half ago, I did not give enough thought to their location and training.
This video provided the exact information I needed to go out there and address this situation today! I even took step by step notes to follow. You are a treasure! ❤
I can't believe how much growth your blackberries put on to their primocanes. I can't wait until my soil amendments start taking full effect onto my crops. Just started putting the woodchips down everywhere Spring of 2019.
Excellent instructions my friend. I seldom comment, but I do know about blackberries and this information is rite on. Happy Thanksgiving. Best wishes Bob.
WE HAD A BLACK BEAR RUN THROUGH OUR GARDEN ONE TIME!!!!!! BUT WE'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GROW BLACKBERRIES!!!!!!!
This was very helpful. Thank you very much. I have neglected my blackberry plants for 2 years after moving into a new home. This was a great guide for me to know how to tackle the mess.
I planted two blackberry bushes this past spring. Ate delicious fruit and now I need to prune. Thanks for your informative videos. I always learn something useful and I enjoy watching your puppy.
I found your video and used your techniques at around this time last year. A few weeks ago I began picking really huge blackberries. So now that the floral canes are done fruiting, I’ll be spending my weekend cutting them out.
Great video. The way you are explaining it really makes it easy.
lol. I watched the whole video in a state of utter confusion because my bushes look completely different. Than you said BLACKberries one more time and I realised: Mine are BLUEberries. Anyway, thanks for the great content . And I actually do have a neglected blackberry, which this year produced two berries. So maybe I can turn it around with this information.
Learning from you never gets old. I adore your enthusiasm and willing to share your knowledge with others. Bless you and yours for all you do and give.
Early October 2022 and I just acquired some thornless blackberries from a neighbor who's cleaning up her yard. I dug them up and will be transplanting them in their designated spot. Hopefully they'll survive the winter and sprout in the spring. The canes are about as big as my thumb, some with some branching. That I know of, she never maintained them. Again, hopefully they'll survive and I'll take your instructions and apply them to my new addition to my food forest.
The love don't make a difference, But the perfect picking time, no pesticides/herbicides, and organic fertilizers make massive difference
And that's love
I was taught to leave exhausted canes in place til they go completely dried and brittle because the roots want to reabsorb the sap. Great vid, thanks.
Awesome video James, As always !!! This is Irene and I planted some as you said . Just the back and yellow survived . My red died somehow... I'll just plant some red next year ! Thanks for sharing !
I haven't watched this guy in a couple of years but true to his form he always plays really good music at just the right times. I subscribed now. Keep the mellow tunes coming 👍👍👍
I just planted one-year-old plants, blackberries and raspberries, into the ground. Should I snip tips off of the stems to encourage lateral growth? Thanks for all the great information. We need to clone Tuck:)
Enjoy the info I get from watching your sight. I have thornless blackberries ( triple crown). Live in Ohio, last winter we had a week of temps below zero. I believe because of that I lost most of my primary canes. I noticed all the new canes now growing are developing flowers and most are about two feet tall. Have you ever experienced that?
Joisey! I love your videos. Not born in Joisey, but raised in Plainfield, and now living in South Kack, since '97. Thank you.
james: you've given us a lot of information in this video. the thorny variety are difficult to work with without gettings hooked as some point. thanks. carmine p.
Thank you! This is just the info I needed. I had a huge crop of blackberries this year. I also had an explosion of new growth. A little late, but will prune back severely now!
Thank you for this very helpful video. I learn something new each time I watch it.
Thanks so much, now I can stay on top of my Osage Blackberry bush. Happy growing...
I am glad that I watched your video because now I know how to tame my thorny black raspberry patch,thanks so much for the info!
I love it , is very nice to see how the people like you are dedicated to receive the direct bless from our mother earth. Thanks a lot ..god bless you honey with lots of abundance.
I have planted some blackberries , but they are tasting sour even changed to black, I am thinking to remove the plants, but will give another year to try, this time I pruned them very heavily, to concentrate on the fruits for the next year
thank you, my blackberries have grown out of control this summer so I will cut them back. Some of the long runners are along a fence so I will leave them, but runners are way too many and all over around the canes so I will cut many of them back. This year's harvest for some reason are low and short, but looks like next year will be much different. This is the second year, first year growth was limited I thought they might die but this year they took off.
Choose the Thornless type , they're Kinder for Everybody! Thank You for sharing!
I watched this video last year, and the semi-errect blackberry I have was its first year so it was easy to prune. Now the berries have been harvested I had to come back re-watch.💡I finally understand the difference between the primacane and floricane!! It would be awesome to have seen the plant at the time it needs pruning bc that may have made more sense but who knows..maybe I am just hard headed!! Lol
Thanks for all you and Tuck taught me!! ❤
Thank you! You're my favorite green educator!
Thank You again James for this demo! I planted 2 blackberry plants today. They are just a single stem in the middle but yours look like bushes. . .
Excellent video, I just started growing blackberries, raspberries and strawberries last year.
I grow mine with love too
You have spoke many times about where you like to order trees from. What are your recommendations for blackberries and raspberries? Also what varieties to you prefer/recommend. Thank you so much for your great content. I would be happy to hear any recommendations that other viewers have as well. I live in western Pennsylvania if that matters for recommendations. Thanks to all for their input.
Check out Raintree Nursery, their selection of berries is amazing.
Thank you very much, very well done you really explained it well and I really love the close ups,could you please do a how to prune video on grapes
I used this method on mine last year and this year my blkberries were as big as my palm- 2+ inches long and wide :) My biggest berries so far! RE watching for next year :) It's like playing twister when I pick mine, LOL!! thanks!!
Good info James - I need to clean up my blackberries too.
Glad you enjoyed it bro. 👍🙏🏻
I was very interested in this video as I am inundated with wild blackberry. Every year after fruiting I just strimm them back to a reasonable width and height and let them do their own thing. I always have more fruit than I can use. I never thought to train them to grow "properly"
James, thanks a lot! I just discovered your TH-cam channel and I love it. I also live in NJ and am looking to start growing my own food! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the great lesson. We were blessed with 3 types of berries this year. So, as you might imagine, the perma stalks have really takin over. I highly recommend the thornless tripleberry variety. They are huge and so tasty! All Glory to the Most High, who gives ALL the increase! ❤️
Congrats on 1M! 👍🏻 Great channel. ❤
James, I know this is an older video but It was really useful to me. I am moving in 30 days and didn't want to leave my blackberry bush behind, do I still have time to dig up my bush and replant at my new residence. Does Tuck like to eat blackberries too. I love that little man he is so cute.
This is the best video I have seen on this topic! Thanks James!
Glad you enjoyed it my friend, and you’re welcome 😁❤️
James, Gorgeous can't wait to see them when they csme in. How do you propagate them? Can you take a stock that you cut and stick in the ground? Will it root ... Or do you have to dig and separate the roots?
I love your energy my brother-in-law thank you for putting out these insightful gardening videos, ✌
I planted some black berries a friend gave me 3 years ago. They didn't grow the next year. Since then I have used the sheet mulch method to prepare that area for planting.
I'm always thinking about how I will go about adding to the food forest next year, of course.
After this video, I have decided to add black berries to my Vesey's order and try them in that space again.
I have a lot of random stuff including unkept black berries....useful info.
I just got Snowbank black berries this year that I'll plant so I am grateful for this information James. Thank you.
We have three thornless blackberries coming. Perfect time to watch this! Thanks James!
Today is may 16 2024 !! Thank you for being so explainable and understanding ❣️ I love Tuck he's adorable ❤️❤️❤️❤️❣️
very good narration. repeats stuff so we 'get the information' , without being boring.
Learned so much. Exactly what I needed.
Thanks for the tips I have some growing in my backyard but didn’t want to get rid of them but didn’t really know how to prune them. Thanks for another great video!
OMG. This is NOT what I was told to do, and now I realize I've done it all wrong and I'm going to be lucky if I have any berries next year! ☹ Thanks for setting me straight!
I have a coyple acres of wild blackberries my family has picked on for decades. They are 10' high and probably 10" deep. I imagine rabbits and birds have homes inside them. I do have a small patch close to my house, though, and in thinking about doing this to them and see how it works out!
Great info. Thanks. I’ll give blackberries a try.
Gray Linda!! I think you will really enjoy them. I suggest a thornless variety 😁🐕
I'm so excited! I knew nothing on my plant and you have great instructions and details.
Just moved some I found in my backyard to the front yard right under window to our room.
Thank you for the video, this will help loads. We moved to a new property that has a vigorous blackberry area, and we really had no idea what to do with it. Sounds like we are overdue for pruning both spent and primocanes.
Here in the UK, blackberries grow wild everywhere only difference is, we call them brambles:)
Yes, thank you berry much !!
your advice is always awesome .. I love your enthusiasm
Thank you for this, I can now take care of my blackberries, best informative video.
Thanks for info. Just pruned my tall no torns, blackberry bush-tree and wondered if I did it right. Apparently I did. Thought about how you would do it the whole time I was working on it! That's crazy! And now I see the video. Lol Have a great day! 💓💓
That was the perfect training video for me! Thank you. Great job.
Great info - thanks!!! Just bought a thornless blackberry so this helps me decide where to plant it and how to keep on top of its spread.
I was just watching another garden channel, don’t remember what I was called. Had a cute dog named tuck as the star. Anyways, he mentioned something about pruning blackberry bushes. So I figured I’d come learn about that!
Yes Bro Yes. Loved food tastes so much better. Food from the Gods. I had a baby onion harvest? Omg I do not have words for how good those baby onions were. Holy Mother. :) I can't wait to taste the blackberries I have ten and the squash mamas are pregnant Woo Hoo.
When trimming the more spindly canes or when trimming back a cane, can they be used as starts for new plants?
I have done that with the healthy canes and placed them in my aquaponic system and they root easily. If you allow them to lay the can root and then you cut them transplant them.
You're awesome. I'm learning so much. Thanks a billion times
Did you get snow last Thursday? Here in Berlin, NJ we got 4 1/2 inches of snow! ☃️
Your almost a neighbor I’m in Williamstown we got about 3”. Had hard summer getting stuff to grow. The summer before I had growth like crazy. Hoping for better results coming yr. got more education on dirt and cold frames. Happy growing to you. 💪🏻🖖🏻👩🏼🌾👍🏻🐾
perfect video, i like it you keep repeating what's important, that helps! 🙂
Very good video. Thank you.
Just doing cane berries, so info is much needed. Great channel, (music is cool too)
Great views of your process! Thank you!
Great instructions! Thank you!!!
Hey James, would really be great to see a video on how to prune Fall bearing gold raspberries if you havn't done yours already. Confused on the differences between Summer and Fall bearing varieties. Perhaps someone else may have a quick guide explanation. Thanks in advance, really appreciate you!
Thanks James! Do you prune your blueberries and raspberries the same way?
I think it's possible raspberries are pruned the same way. Blueberries are entirely different. I've not found a video yet that describes pruning blueberries.
Thanks for the info heading out now to trim my black berries!
Great lesson, thanks for sharing.
Exactly what we needed! Thanks so much!
