I planted a bareroot loganberry 2 seasons ago.  The first year it bore well but small berries that barely had any flesh due to an undiscovered problem in my drip irrigation system. Last year I had to water by hand (couldn't afford to fix the system). The berries were a bit bigger but still bitter. Now, blackberries have a bit of that bitterness around the seeds but they have enough sweetness to make up for it.  I've never tried loganberries before planting them. Do they primarily taste bitter?
