Hi Folks
I'm looking at getting some for the plot and wondered if anyone had any views on suppliers or what would constitute a reasonable price?
Looking at minimum 10 maximum 20.
Regards..........Danny

I would see if anyone else on the plot are thinning theirs out. I had bought a couple of plants then noticed my allotment neighbour doing some work on theirs. I asked if they were thinning any out if I could have the 'thinnings'
I arrived at plot a few days later to find two buckets full of plants and my neighbours plants looking very tidy.

If you are not careful raspberries soon become weeds, From experience I find autumn fruiting worst for sending out runners. I started with 12 Joan J and now have in excess of 40 (after 2 years). you may want to stick with your lower figure

My plan was to plant them through membrane, would that supress them somewhat?

I’ve found that my autumn bliss can put runners out 3ft to 4ft from the actual canes.
