HOW TO GROW & PRUNE CANE FRUITS - Blackberry, Loganberry, Tayberry - Full Step-By-Step Pruning Guide

Welcome to Adam’s Gardening Guides.
Cane fruits are some of my favourite fruits to grow in our gardens, allotments and veg plots, and many are suitable for small spaces too.
I grow a selection of Blackberries, Tayberries and Loganberries along a ‘post and wire’ support in front of my greenhouse and get almost daily pickings of fruits through July, August and September … and sometimes into October too!
They are trouble-free fruits to grow but do need pruning once a year to remove the old canes that have carried fruit. This creates space to tie the new canes that developed that year in to the supports … and these will produce flowers and fruits the following year.

finally a clear video on pruning and training berries! and it's pleasant to watch. thank you!!
a quick question: could this kind of training work against or very near a wall ?

[@Adams-Gardening-Guides]

Yes I’m sure they will, provided they don’t get too hot and scorch during very sunny weather, and you keep them watered as soil along a wall can get very dry. I grow some blackberries along a fence, running training wires between the wooden posts, so you would need to develop a similar support on a wall.
As well as mulching plants well I would consider running a seeping hose or similar irrigation system along to make regular watering easier. Let us know how you get on by adding another comment in future. Thank you.
