Where at? I’m pretty low on the wet side and am still seeing blossoms on all the patches around me.
:yeah:
Finally saw a bunch of green berries about 1/3 size yesterday on my ruck.

I've never said this before, like ever, but I'm jealous of you Westside guys and your access to Blackberries :chuckle:
They go great with crab. :chuckle:

Lucky for you, you have a guy that will host you and feed you and allow you to pick as many berries as you want. Just means miles.

Wait until you see how much cheap stolen property is available on Craigslist over here, there’s plenty of silver linings!

Decent video describing the differences between the two main varieties of blackberries.

We were driving by a cutbank in the Sequim Area, govt land, maybe 30' tall and 200 yds long, my wife said, "Is that ALL blackberries?!?!" I said, "Yup!"
Cut the sugar from the (reduced sugar) pectin box recipe to slightly over half, and it makes amazing jam! Just boil it down, no labor needed! (Full sugar pectin won't jell if you reduce the sugar.)

I use Honey instead of sugar and it's awesome.

Come get some plants, I spent four hours spraying the dam things this morning and I’m still not done.🤬
But we did put in some thornless ones in this spring.🤣

Not sure of the variety, but we have the super tiny blackberries that grow directly on the ground. About 1/3 of ours are ripe now. The others are still red. So delicious, but hours of picking for 1-2 pies.
Those are native ones.👍

I need to remember to cook longer than what a lot of recipes call for to make sure the thickener sets up.
