New growth on Raspberries very yellow

[Digeroo]

I have tried all sorts to green them up. .  Coffee grounds, epsom salts, BFB.   It is particularly bad this year.   Any suggestions please.

Has anyone tried Rockdust?

I found this where they recommend rust from wire wool for Chlorosis,
has anyone tried this?

Patience?   They should green up if and when we get decent amounts of sun shine but light levels are so low at the mo that lots of plants are struggling to green up properly.   Several crops sufffering with it on tonight's Beechgrove for th e same reasons.

My raspberries were looking very pale 6 weeks ago, until I used phostrogen on them.  They are now looking very healthy.

I don't normally use fertilizers, but this year with all the rain, the raspberries have needed a little  help.

Hope this helps

Some of mine are so pale they are almost white.

Give them a feed of phostrogen now, and then in a couple of weeks.  You should see a difference quite soon

My Summer raspberries have been a total failure this year  :'(
I usually have bucket loads but this year just one large punnet full of very watery mushy fruit.
Almost all of this years new growth was just stem & leaves, very bright green but with no flowers/fruit at all. The fruit I did get was from an ancient raspberry that I didn't prune last year so the fruit was on tiny sprigs of new growth on last years stem.
The new growth was much taller/thinner than usual too, like the plants have been struggling to reach some light in the grey sky!
Yesterday I cut them all back really quite harshly as I don't want the plants to put any more effort into just growing foliage.

Photrogen is far better to use than miracle grow

Why is phostrogen better than Miracle Grow.  The latter is supposed to have more trace minerals.
