Bigger, better blackberries
Article Abstract:
Blackberry picking was always considered a painstaking job where one had to be dusted with sulfur powder to guard against itching and invariably one would suffer scratches while picking up the berries but new-age techniques can ease these problems because berries on trellis can be picked easily. A berry farm allows their customers to pick their own berries and they get maximum customers in the May-June months and their biggest berry is the Kiowa, which is ten-times bigger than normal berries.
