This is helpful information, thank you! The fence is well within our yard, so I’m not worried about the canes spreading into our neighbor’s land. I don’t think they’d care anyway, since it’s all pasture land, and blackberries grow wild here.
I do think I need raised beds for the raspberries, since the canes I planted this last spring have almost all died, and I think it was the constant rains on our clay soil that did them in. Otherwise, it may have been the woodchip mulch, since we have a lot of walnuts growing wild, and the mulch is free from our electric company. I’ve debated on posting a question on that, but I don’t think there’s enough juglone to kill them.
