I’ve got floricane raspberries, and the canes for next year seem very small and underdeveloped compared to the ones I just harvested this years berries off of. Is it normal that they be so small at this point? Or should I have fertilized them better weeks ago, and is it too late now? This was my first harvesting year, so I’m not sure what’s normal at this point.

    I put them in the ground last year, but I had them in a too-small pot before that

    Depending on how long you had them in that pot, the plant could be dying from old age and that’s why the canes are small. Raspberry plants live 5-15 years depending on variety.

    But seems unlikely

      Well I didn’t think I had them in that pot for long, but I was thinking about it and they may have been there since 2019… Oh no my raspberry plants are getting old! I guess that’s why they have all those canes. (I’m sorry)
