My raspberries didn’t bud above about 2 feet off of last year’s canes. This section of plants has done very well the past few years, I cut off the dead canes and thinned to a few canes per root at end of winter. Is this disease? Winter kill? Not enough water?
It has been a rather dry spring. I don’t usually need to water my raspberries much, but might have to start. Climate change is a bitch
the aphids suck juice out of the plant, plus the water can kill them. doubly whammy for fixing it
