Triple crown blackberry: description

This blackberry variety is characterized by fast growth. In the first year of planting, shoots can reach 2 meters. That is why the plant requires special personal care. Basic rules for growing blackberries:

1. Do not cut the bushes of this blackberry variety too much. The plant loves light thickening.
2. If you want to achieve a good harvest, then it is advisable to plant the bushes tightly to each other. Thus, the bushes will not have the opportunity to grow in different directions and build up extra leaves. All the energy will be spent on the formation of berries.
3. Do not forget to regularly remove weeds and loosen the soil.
4. The plant requires regular feeding with standard mineral fertilizers. This can be done several times per season.
5. For the winter, the bushes need to be covered with a special film, since this is a thermophilic variety that may not survive even a little frost.

The main feature of the variety is its resistance to various diseases. The most common pest is aphids. But with proper care, even this insect will not touch your bushes. If it so happens that the pest has overtaken your plant, then make the following spray liquid for the bushes:

• tobacco dust – 200 g;
• water – 10 l;
• liquid laundry soap – 50 g.

It is advisable to spray the bushes with this solution early in the morning, while the plant is not in direct sunlight. After a few days of procedures, you will notice that the pest has left the plant.

There is nothing difficult in growing and caring for a blackberry variety called “Triple Crown”. The main thing is to follow the standard rules that will help keep the plant in good shape. In return, you will receive a high yield of delicious and juicy blackberries, which is simply impossible to pass by.
