RE: The Other Red Berry

in #gardening7 years ago

Yes it's nice to know there's a late crop coming. My harvest have not been great with the primocanes though partly from squashing the tall canes with my row cover in the summer and then with the yellow jackets eating them in the fall. I didn't mention that in my article but that's another problem.

Sort:  

Last year I had problems with maggots on the inside of the berries. They looked ok when you picked them, but there would be tiny worms inside the berry. Some kind of bug larvae. It wasn't all of them, mostly just the really ripe ones on the shade side of the plants.

My son found a little worm in one the other day. Now he is sticking with the blueberries.
