    It was so entertaining watching and listening to her present her berries. She was genuine and full of pride of what she has grown. If she doesn't make you want to try and grow not just berries but any fruit and veg, nothing will. Would've been nice to see the rest of her garden.

      If you can, you should. They are extremely easy. We grow, currants, gooseberries (2 varieties, 2 varieties of raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. Super yummy. Still have strawberries , currants and raspberries from our pick in the summer. I live in Europe. So they are from our latest summer.

    I have a passion to grow blueberries. I got my first yard and first garden ever recently. Bought a house in the Wimmera (North -west Victoria). So I am researching . Your video had goven me tips and hope . Yes, the Wimmera is about 3 degrees colder and 3-4 degrees hotter at max than Melbourne. So I’ll have to put a baby greenhouse and shade-cloth. Etc. But I am determined. Thanks for your lovely presentation

    I also grow almost as many as you do but I am in colder zone. I had so much more we can eat, sell and freeze. But I also found Japanese beetles and wild animals do enjoy them too much in long period time as well. Some varieties their taste are just not as good, I am trying other varieties and hope only keep the good ones. Harvest time overlap is good and bad though, because the high peak time, I have to harvest at least 3 times a day otherwise when I am busy, those would be wasted. I used the frozen berries to make concentrate sauce to reduce the freezer space then I use that sauce to make syrup and add some water to make popsicles! The other way to use lots of berries would be making wine.

    More effort should made to replace tomatoes with strawberries.
    When tomatoes peak they are cheap to buy. Strawberries and other berries are always costly even at their peak.
    All berries can be consumed directly or frozen and dried.
    They are delicious without further processing.

    There’s a new blackberry that fruits on the first years growth . The cropping time is dictated by the time you prune. I grow many varieties of berries to stagger cropping.

      We have wild blackberries that grow like weeds here in our area. People are always "spraying" the berries. I noticed some coming over from the neighbor and asked the yard guy to pull them out. I guess I have to try to corral them, and pick them when they're in season.

  • @hokaheynineteen
    @hokaheynineteen ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Try the black currant Ribes odoratum aka Crandall's Clove Scented Currant. They are delicious but be patient and let them fully ripen, even over ripen a bit. Also plant the Munger Black Raspberry. If I could only grown one berry plant, it would be Munger BR. They are the best.

    Your awesome wish I knew more & whether or not some of those grew here in southern Colorado? I've got strawberries growing in pots indoors & heard of runner's before but this batch started from seed & has yet to produce!? Not sure if there GMO berries?/ I hope not but I definitely will trim the runner's & see how they do ?

    When I was little I thought red currants were sweeter than black currants and my kids today also think that red currants are sweeter. But today as an adult I think black currants are the sweeter ones. My dad also says that he likes black currants better. Why is it like this?! Isn't it totally weird?

    I find it impossible to eat many of the fruit I grow, specially with berries, they are eaten by rodents at night 😢. So much work for not much fruit.

    • @resolecca
      @resolecca ปีที่แล้ว

      Ikr so many plants without nets but still so much fruit, where as my plants get all the fruits eaten by birds before I can get to them even, while they are covered by nets, also I don't know how she gets her strawberries so big mine are always tiny, like the size of a 20 cent coin max

    • @mayhemschild
      @mayhemschild ปีที่แล้ว

      You can try tulle fabric as netting. It does keep rodents away but I found you have to cover your container or raised bed really well. I didn’t clip it on well enough in one spot and the rat went under it and inside my raised bed. Some people use laundry bags for large plants or other small net bags to go around the fruit while it’s growing on the plant. I haven’t had to do that yet but I was bummed out… one year the roof rats wiped out my entire garden. The orchard had no fruit left and they ate chunks out of my pineapple. I blame my neighbor… he was constantly throwing food scraps along the fence line. Not even in a compost bin!
