Question<\/a>
\nPlease could you tell me when to prune soft fruits.
\nAnswer<\/a>
\nFirst cut out any dead, dieased and damaged wood.<\/p>\n

Raspberries summer fruiting varieties should be pruned after fruiting retaining 6-8 young unfruited canes.<\/p>\n

Autumn fruiting varieties should be pruned to the ground in February then tie the new canes to the wires as they grow in the spring and summer..<\/p>\n

Blackcurrants can be pruned between November and March.Remove one third of fruited branches.No wood should be more that four years old..<\/p>\n
