I have a couple of thornless blackberry bushes here in north Texas, and it's been a great summer for them. I've been getting loads of fairly large berries and expect a couple more weeks of the same. I've had no problem sharing for fresh eating (they disappeared quickly at work), and they make amazing jam, but I'd love to get a sweeter berry. A few are sweet but most are on the tarter side. I envy those big, juicy tender berries of the northwest! Totally different climate here, of course. My question is, do any of you have experience with soil amendments or fertilizing that helps with blackberries?
