Thank you Cliff & Diane for another great video. Looking forward to watching the Pelargonium and Fuchsia cuttings. I have been cutting down my loganberry canes and tying in the new ones this weekend. I cut all the blackberry canes down to the ground as the previous owner had not looked after them and the old and new canes were in a terrible tangle. Going to dig it up and move to a better position on the allotment plot. Happy gardening 🙂
Thanks for this. It’s some years since I have grown raspberries, I have to make choices with my limited space. That shredder really does a good job breaking down those canes! I would make wine from a big crop of raspberries! Raspberry wine can be very special indeed! Klaus
Another great informative video of pruning raspberry canes, definitely looking forward to the cuttings of geraniums etc! We have to try and save money now whatever we do! Hope you get some drier weather soon ! Take care keep safe and warm! Dave, 👍👍
Hi Cliff and lovely Diane We been making most of this dry Saturday Like you we have cut down and shredded the raspberry canes a friend has a petrol chipper and arranges to come to different plots to do our chipping,
Sounds great Bill&Val you have someone to help with shredding, my electric one is no were near as powerful. I bet It made a excellent job. Take care regards from us both.
Hello Cliff and Diane, enjoyed the video as always good advice would welcome a video on sharpening the shedder. My daughter was a week or so late with her potatoes so hoping for good weather to bring them on. Take care and have a good week.
Thanks lonegunwoman, yes we are going to video sharpening the shredder weather permitting. Your daughters potatoes will soon catch up, hopefully you have good weather regards from us both.
Hello Cliff, another great video, slightly off topic, hope it's OK to ask. I've made the frames for my brassicas, could you tell me what wood preservative you use on the legs underground. Thank you.
Thanks Cliff, good of you to reply so quickly. I'd love to see a video of you making the raised bed coldframe sometime? 62 years old and still learning, please keep up the good work.
My mums golden raspberries have started fruiting again which is strange for this time of year? The weather is so unpredictable lately im surprised the strawberries havnt fruited again😂
Hi Marie, yes this weather is so unpredictable this year, your Mums golden raspberries are fruiting again as with my strawberries. Even though we are having morning frosts, so strange regards Cliff.

Hi Sharon my shredder is a Draper garden power, Its not too expensive but quite robust.
