What has been your funniest gardening mishap you’ve made so far? – Reddit Post
I’ll go first – I didn’t realize that raspberries can propogate easily from cuttings. I also didn’t realize they can be pretty aggressive. After I pruned my container berries in the fall, I put the sticks to in my raised bed alongside leaves for extra organic material, thinking they would break down and add more nutrients to the soil. Well, I was obviously very wrong about that and keep finding raspberry starts all over the bed. Luckily I’m planting tomatoes here so nothing has been planted yet. I’ve found around 20 of these little plants in the dirt so far. I’m in my second year of gardening and this all seems so obvious to me now! I’ll definitely be remembering this lesson for the future.
I now have 5 pots of what might be some nice raspberry plants I can give away at least!
