raspberry plants...why are just some of them yellow?

apprentice_tycoon · 2005-07-21 07:54:12

This has got me stumped - I know that someone will know the answer to this I have a row of 8 autumn fruiting raspberry canes along the longest side of the greenhouse (outside, in the soil) 6 of them are big and green leaved, the 2 at the end of the row look very sickly with yellowing leaves, if this is a soil deficiency…

I'd say yes, without a doubt. If Jeyes is persistent and is indeed causing the problem. If you're convinced it is I'd dispose of the soil unless you have a corner somewhere where nothing ever grows so you could do a swap.

You've got time to make sure you have plenty of compost ready which would reduce the need for pinching soil from elsewhere in the garden given the advice you've just read.
