A new pollinizer, Honey Bee, will be available fall of 2013 Blue Honeysuckles or the HASKAP Berries, are now entering commercial production based on research developed and conducted in PEI by Phytocultures. The first generations of Haskap berry varieties have made their way into the market. Growers are learning of some production related issues that concern these unique berries. Based on early findings, these berries will easily produce a profusion of flowers and fruit early in the spring. Often, these plants will produce the first green foliage and their berries will ripen before the end of June. The ability to manage and control weeds is crucial for berry production along with the identification of proper bush shape training in order for berry picking to be accomplished without difficulty. Haskap Berries do not appear to be targeted by many insects however we are still at an early stage in the development of the crop. These plants develop lush foliage, which may make it critical to prune them in order to increase airflow through the bush and to dry the leaves following heavy dews or rainfalls. As we have noted, a fungus, Botrytis, will infect the leaves and turn them brown following wet events.
