Raspberry bushes have to be pruned every year to maximize growth and production and limit disease and pests. There are two types of Raspberry bushes, summer-bearing and ever-bearing. Which type you have will dictate how you prune. Pruning Raspberries isn't hard and it doesn't take long. But doing it right is essential to having a healthy, producing crop every summer.
Your Raspberry bush must not be pruned in the fall. Leave it alone! Raspberry pruning is done at the end of winter, leading into spring bud break. This allows you to clear out all the old brambles properly, easily determine the Floricanes from the Primocanes, and lets you have perfect spacing to lay down that final layer of mulch before the patch becomes foliage (and thorn!) heavy.
