Re: Video: How to Prune Raspberies

Since the top portion of last summer's primocane ever bearing raspberry plants fruited last year I would assume that this part of the plant no longer is productive. Is it advisable to remove this portion of the plant?

Also, I had about 30% of my ever bearing primocanes not bear a Fall crop last year. Is there any advice that you could provide as to why this may occur? The plants are healthy from all outward appearances; they are tall and have the thick basal stems that the video referred to. Thanks ahead of time for any possible input anyone may have.
