Keep the horseradish in the pot or you will be sorry.

Make sure you get thornless blackberries. They are worth the extra cost. They are huge sweet and delicious.

I've been looking into the berries and I have heard that the giant blackberries are not nearly as sweet as the smaller ones. I'll keep doing my research though. I have purchased the giant berries at market that were as big as golf balls and they weren't very sweet or juicy.catjac1975 said:
I have also considered putting grapes in that long strip along the fence. Some day I would like to try making wine. But there is a winery not too far from here where you can buy grapes by the bushel and everyone tells me that it is much cheaper to buy them than it is to grow them. We'll see.

Nice pics, you are really putting the tiller to good use. Pretty soon you won't have any grass to mow! Lol

I'm so happy for you! In case you haven't thought about it, if you decide to create any small beds that the tractor can't reach, I suggest that you till another area, dig out the soil from that bed, and replace it with the tilled soil. I've done that, and the beds are really easy to rake fluffy every year.

I've got some of the thornless black berries. I personally prefer their taste to their thorny cousins. Come spring I will probably have a few rooted cuttings I can pass on to you. I grow them on my fence and they've been there for years! You just gotta remember the older canes produce the fruit. So you cant whack them back.

I must have missed this post back in July! Beautiful garden, Smiles - are those beehives I see in the 3rd picture? A belated congrats on the new-to-you tiller!
