My father, in 1942, planted a 60 ft. row and
used post and wire to support the boysenberries the same as you usually do
grapes. I remember that he had me to clean out 3 mule stalls and
spread the manure alongside of the plants.
The row produced so much that many
families in our neighborhood had plenty.
Every few years, he would have me cut the canes
back to the ground and spread manure again.
I do not remember any problem with the canes
dying but maybe that was why he had me to cut the old canes back to
the ground to get rid of some disease.
The berries were doing fine when he sold the
homeplace in 1950. He did not plant bosenberries at the new
homeplace in 1950.
The new owner did not take care of the berries as
well as my father had and so in a few years the berries were not doing very
good. I guess he just plowed them up and that was the
end.
