Well, I'm late getting around to listening to this podcast but I must say I loved it!!! So much great information for a newbie like me! I have been very interested in blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries. I knew blackberries and blueberries grew well in our area because of the soil acidity apparently being just perfect for them but I have been puzzled as to why no one seems to grow strawberries here much. I had also noticed there are no U-pick strawberry farms anywhere around here. Anyway, thanks for filling in so many gaps in my knowledge in this area! BTW, I would love to hear a podcast sometime on orchards, establishing one, timeframe expectations for harvest, care and conditions required, just general info. Just putting a bug in your ear for future podcast ideas! Thanks again for all the awesomely helpful info!!!
