Thanks Professor!!

Black are just about gone, White are finally showing up!!....not as tasty though...



Still a bit confused though, I stopped by Goose's house the other day,,, he has some steroid fed blackberries growing in his backyard, I mean they look like clusters of grapes, they're so plump...
I was under the impression that as this plant grows, it will not produce fruit the first year, it WILL produce fruit the 2nd year, then dry up. The new sprouts that pop up will continue the cycle.
Goose says he's had those same plants producing fruit every year.
I have new whiteRB plants giving fruit already...as well as the old ones. My fruit bearing blackRB that produced fruit last year, dried up...and the new sprouts (if I can call them that), that came up last year, are the ones that produced fruit this year.
