Market Farming

[Bill Bradshaw <billbradshaw AT direcway.com>]

Mark, blackberries produce fruit this year on last years canes. In our area
if the blackberries are mowed at about 12" directorially after harvest, you
can get enough new growth for your next crop. If mowed or cut back late in
the year (fall, winter) you will have no crop. TB
