I’m looking at these golden raspberry canes, and I’m imagining the entire shebang growing longer with way more side canes and dripping with fruit, and I realize I’m daring the berries to come at me.
I gotta work on some trellis strategies, because these canes want to march west, and I should get them to serpentine over the raised bed where I can use the framework to help support them.
It’s supposed to rain almost straight through the entire next two weeks.
